Sculpture

About This Group

This group is about representational photography of 3 dimensional sculpture, that exists in the real world.

Sculpture is man-made three-dimensional artwork created by shaping or combining materials such as plastic, wire, sound, text, light, commonly stone, metal, glass, wood, or even water and ice. Some sculptures are created directly by moulding or carving; others are assembled, built together and fired, welded, or cast.

Some common forms of sculpture are:
Free-standing sculpture – sculpture that is surrounded on all sides, except the base, by space. It is also known as sculpture “in the round”, and is meant to be viewed from any angle.
Light sculpture
Jewellery
Relief – the sculpture is still attached to a background; types are bas-relief, alto-relievo, and sunken-relief.
Site-specific art
Kinetic sculpture – involves aspects of physical motion
Fountain – the sculpture is designed with moving water
Mobile
Statue – representational sculpture depicting a specific person, event, animal or object
Bust – representation of a person from the chest up
Equestrian statue – typically showing a significant person on horseback
Stacked art – a form of sculpture formed by assembling objects and ‘stacking’ them
Architectural sculpture
