IRON SUMMER SESSION 5
JULY 16–28, 2023

Shingo Furukawa
It Moves!

This workshop will be a basic introduction to kinetic sculpture: it’s easy! Students will learn the fundamental principles of mechanical movement and use simple components to create sculptures that move. We’ll cover basic fabrication and welding, but this will not be a technique-oriented workshop. Instead we’ll explore movement as a tool for communicating ideas. All levels.
