Wire Sculpture

Wire can be manipulated to create sculptures in a variety of formats from 2-D to 3-D

Any contour line drawing can be translated into a wire sculpture… Elizabeth Berrien aka Wire Lady

Make the wire sculpture more 3-dimensional and hang it farther away from the wall- Now you are letting light and shadow play into the presentation of the work.

Place it on the table and you can look at wire sculpture in another way.

Found objects could inspire a wire sculpture… Bruce Campbell

Sal Villano

Every student will create a wire sculpture of a figure or animal using a variety of wires. The sculpture should be at least 8” tall. The most important element to keep in mind when creating with wire is LINE. You are the artist. You tell the audience where and how to See.
