Overview & Modules
The course begins with an initial experience of basic metalworking techniques and welding, together with a practical introduction to the metalworking workshop and also covers health and safety.
You are encouraged to bring suitable pieces of scrap steel with you. The focus of the course is a consideration of the visual possibilities these items offer – singly or as part of a structure – and through discussion and experiment, transforming them into individual pieces of sculpture for house or garden.
Sculptures may be made entirely from scrap, a three-dimensional collage of found components or from a combination of scrap and new metal, re-working found pieces and combining them with newly worked material.
How will I be assessed?
Practical assessment throughout the course.
