Sculpture

As one of the oldest and most diverse forms of artistic expression, the Sculpture concentration at Memphis College of Art challenges students to communicate with a new vocabulary. As a third dimension is investigated, space and structure are created through physical self-expression of ancient to contemporary artmaking.
