Flat to Form: Using Paper as a Sculptural Medium

Leandra Spangler

All levels

Studio

5 Day class (9am-4pm)

Tuition: $275

Materials: $35

Learn to turn flat sheets of beautiful papers into three-dimensional forms by casting (using found objects and constructed molds) and creating reed, stick, or wire sculptural forms as armatures. This workshop will introduce you to the versatility of paper as a sculptural medium. Participants will create three-dimensional forms from paper using both wet and dry techniques. Finishing techniques, embellishment, and archival qualities of paper will be discussed.
