Sculpture Philosophy

Supporting a broad range of methodologies while critically examining the ideas of our time

The Sculpture department engages in a deep investigation of knowledge systems, and the role of the artist as an interpreter of contemporary culture.

We explore the meaning of artistic practice through conversation and shared dialog, within a dynamic environment of committed and diverse individuals. Our shared experiences provide a backdrop for considering the spheres of influence that sculpture engages with, including its histories and potential futures.

Sculpture supports a broad range of methodologies that encapsulate the contemporary world—its values, myths, and symbolic languages—while critically examining how they reflect the dynamic essence of our time. Students are encouraged to look to each other as valuable resources and collaborators while working closely with the Artist-in-Residence and renowned visiting artists, critics, and writers.
