A Three-dimensional World

The Fine arts at Shawnigan is not just about exploring our two dimensional world. Our pottery and sculpture classes open up a whole new horizon, and seek to expand student's understanding of design it relates to the 3 dimensional world. Working primarily in paper, clay, paper mache, metal , soapstone, and foam core, concepts of relief, contour, structure and symmetry, are explored. In these classes, development of specific skills as they apply to three dimensional art forms help students to gain a deeper understanding of visual art.
