AP 3D Art & Design

AP 3D Art & Design is a natural progression for those who have
already completed Ceramics, Architecture, and/or Product Design.
This course allows students interested in working dimensionally
the opportunity to explore structural and sculptural concepts.
Students will create a portfolio that addresses broad sculptural
concerns. Students will utilize 3D printers (both clay and plastic),
the laser cutter, and CNC paper cutter to solve visual problems that
directly solve or address the integration of depth and space, volume
and surface. Students need to demonstrate their knowledge of
and ability to use the Elements of Art and Principles of Design. 3-D
Design portfolio students demonstrate an understanding of 3-D
design through many approaches, such as additive, subtractive,
and relief. Students will investigate forms that are figurative
or non-figurative, sculpture, architectural models, metal work,
ceramics, glass work, installation, performance, assemblage, and
3-D fabric/fiber arts.
