Relief Sculptures

 

5^th GRADERS LEARNED THAT RELIEF SCULPTURE IS A FORM THAT EXTENDS FROM A BACK GROUND OR FLAT SURFACE. IT CAN ONLY BE VIEWED FROM ONE DIRECTION. THEY ALSO LEARNED THAT NON-OBJECTIVE ART IS A FORM THAT ISN’T REPRESENTATIONAL OF ANYTHING AND PRIMARILY USES GEOMETRIC OR FREE FORM SHAPES.

 5^TH GRADERS CREATED A RELIEF SCULPTURE BY GLUING DIFFERENT OBJECTS TO CARDBOARD. THEY THEN COVERED IT IN CRINKLED TINFOIL AND ADDED A BLACK INK WASH TO HELP SHOW THE RELIEF.
