Course Details

Metal has many unique qualities - its attributes of strength, delicacy, malleability and toughness have led to its use across many art and design disciplines. On this course, you’ll be introduced to different metals and the techniques used to work them into sculptural pieces.

It’s ideal for anyone who would like to use metal to explore their artistic vision, enabling you to learn the skills needed to create your own art. On this practical course, you’ll explore different metals and their properties, as well as the tools needed to work each metal and use them safely.

You’ll investigate sculptural form, line and structure, and the specific qualities that different metals have so that you can take advantage of their mechanical strengths.

You’ll start by exploring how to turn drawings into 3D artworks, and then get straight into metalworking, creating maquettes (test pieces) using the techniques you’ve learnt.

Using these maquettes, you’ll develop your metalworking skills to see how they can be applied to produce a complete sculpture in metal by the end of the course.
