This four week course will incorporate traditional processes, critical discussion and experimentation with materials to develop four different approaches to making objects and sculpture.
About
Taking an expansive approach participants will work and consider the potential of various materials such as hand building with clay, mould making with rubber, casting and using found objects.
Lauren Gault’s sculptural, written and performance-based practice looks at the resonant quality of materials; how objects can evoke more intangible experiences, such as a period of time, a place or a presence.
Lauren Gault received her BA in Fine Art (First Class Hons) from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, Dundee. She currently lives and works in Glasgow, working in writing, performance and installation.
