Recomended or Required Reading

Technical equipment (wooden and rubber hammer, chisel set , spatula, plastic basin, mould separating materials, etc.)

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Theoretical information is given related to the mould techniques (Plaster mould, fiber mould, silicon mould, etc.) into which statues or many materials which are three-dimensionally designed can be transmitted. Technical information is transferred by moulding the students works into the final materials by means of materials such as plaster, polyester, silicon in an applied way in the workshops of the department of sculpture.
The student tries all the technical process on his own application and solves the problems he/she encounters under the guidance of the lecturer.
