Head & Torso Sculpture Course (Min 2)
6 classes per course, once a week $395 (min 2 students per course)
Service Description
Create a powerful, expressive human sculpture, built entirely from clay slabs! At Cariku Art Lab, this immersive hand-building course guides students through the sculptural process of creating a hollow human head and torso using patterns, slabs, and slow-build techniques. Unlike solid sculpting, this method allows students to shape form from the inside out, giving the piece both strength and lightness while encouraging bold, expressive design. This class includes 4 complimentary Open Studio sessions. Students enrolled in a 4-week class at Cariku Art Lab receive four complimentary Open Studio sessions during their class term.
