Steel Sculpture: Set in Motion
This workshop will focus on creating activated sculptures intended to move, evolve, and interact with their environment. Beginning with the basics, we’ll cover a wide range of metal fabrication and assembly techniques along with many tips and tricks for problem-solving and working safely and efficiently with a variety of tools. Topics will include design for movement, layout, 3-D mockup, cutting, drilling, threading, mill and lathe machining, plasma cutting, MIG and TIG welding, basic tube/bar/sheet forming, and metal finishing. This workshop will be great for those new to metalwork as well as experienced students who are interested in broadening and refining their skill set. All levels.
NOTE: This workshop will not cover forging.
