Practice Excercise
• Demonstrate the following techniques to show proficiency before beginning your project…– Cut a Geometric Shape– Cut an Organic Shape– Build a relief with a minimum of three layers and
use the negatives to create a depression.– Assemble a Stacked maquette with at least 3 pieces
attached at 90 degree angles– Assemble two pieces of cardboard slotted together.
Objectives
• Create a three dimensional cardboard sculpture representing a real object.
• Build a maquette of the final sculpture.• The Final Sculpture must be at least 2 ft tall or
wide.• Projects will be graded on craftsmanship of
cutting, gluing, and assembling of the pieces as well as the display of the final arrangement.
For Homework
• View items that might make an interesting sculpture in cardboard.
• Option 1: Bring in one Object • Option 2: Take 6 photos of a few items from
the top, bottom, front, back, left and right sides.

Review • Demonstrate the follow processes building
with cardboard– Cut an Organic Shape and a Geometric Shape– Create a Positive and Negative Relief (3 layers.)– Attach 3 pieces of cardboard with 90 degree
angles.– Attach 2 pieces of cardboard with a Slot or Pierce.– Utilize Scoring for a texture or Curve.
Before Building
• Make sure you have gotten homework checked off. – Brought in actual object you’re sculpting.– 6 Photos of the object you’re sculpting.
• Build the maquette before spending time building full scale sculpture.
