BA (Hons) Sculpture

This course explores the expanding and evolving the nature of contemporary sculpture within the context of fine art practice. The course will enable you to understand and explore different interpretations of sculpture through a critically engaged, studio based experience. Key to the course ethos is the relationship between thinking and making. You will develop your critical faculties and practical skills within the dynamic studio culture, supported and informed by a stimulating contextual studies programme, tutorials, workshops and seminars. There will be the opportunity to meet contemporary practitioners, writers and curators with specialist knowledge and expertise, and you will engage with visiting tutors from the UK and around the world. As one of the five fine art subjects within the Art Cluster at Camberwell the course offers a distinct approach to sculpture fine art practice.

The sculpture department has open plan studios placed adjacent to the well-equipped workshops, a foundry and casting room allowing fluid movement between the two spaces. Students have worked with galleries including Stephen Friedman Gallery, White Cube, Royal Festival Hall and worked for artists such as Cerith Wyn Evans, Anthony Gormley and Angus Fairhirst. Students have also taken placements with AB Foundry, Engineered Arts, Royal National Theatre, Horniman Museum and Tate Britain.
