Sculpture’s scope is wide. That’s apparent in the works of MECA’s sculpture faculty and students – works that employ fabric, found objects, even chocolate, as well as rock, wood, and cast metal; that include performance, installation, and digitally-based pieces, as well as more traditional 3D objects. The point is clarity of intent, clarity of thought, and the most appropriate materials and techniques for expressing that intent. The point also is quality of execution, respect of process, and thorough understanding and practice of technique. Training is rigorous, but supportive. So is the ongoing dialogue that examines students’ role as sculptors in the contemporary world, and helps them explore their own personal sources for the content of their work.
