“Silence is as full of potential wisdom and
wit as the unshown marble of great sculpture. The
silent bear no witness
against themselves.”
Aldous Huxley
"Sculpture
is
three-dimensional
artwork created by shaping or combining hard materials,
typically
stone such
as
marble,
metal, glass, or wood, or plastic materials such as
clay,
textiles,
polymers
and softer metals. The term has been extended to works including
sound, text and light.
Found objects
may be presented as sculptures. Materials may be worked by
removal such as
carving; or
they may be assembled such as by
welding ,
hardened such as by
firing, or
molded or
cast.
Surface decoration such as
paint may
be applied.[1]
Sculpture has been described as one of the
plastic arts
because it can involve the use of
materials
that can be moulded or modulated. Sculpture is an important form
of public art. A collection of sculpture in a
garden
setting may be referred to as a
sculpture garden."
