About the workshop
This is a fun weekend workshop which will focus purely on abstract design and increasing your vocabulary of sculptural language (while not having the usual mess of clay, plaster, and stone dust!). You’ll explore the interesting challenge of making three dimensional compositions out of planar shapes and how the space between becomes part of the piece and “channels” movement. You’ll be using cardboard and hot glue guns to design one or more pieces that would be suitable for metal fabrication. Suitable for all levels of experience.!
About the teacher
Damien Lucas began his study of drawing with the late David Wilson in Bathurst in 1997. Wilson then introduced him to master sculptor Tom Bass, which lead to the full time study and practise of sculpture.
He also completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts at National Art School, Sydney, in 2004, and received the Defiance Award for Excellence in Sculpture. He was awarded the “Highly Commended” Prize for the Ingenuity Maquette Show in 2021.
He has shown work in both group & solo exhibitions throughout NSW & his commissions are situated publicly and privately in Longreach QLD, Cootamundra NSW, Mittagong NSW, Sunbury VIC , Orange NSW, Coffs Harbour NSW, and Coopers Shoot NSW.
Damien’s 24 years + experience of teaching is available directly to you and will guide you along your journey in the visual arts!
