Creative Drawing, Sketching & 3D Design Exhibition
























Final 3D compositions

The Creative Drawing & 3D Design journey is unfortunately coming to an end.  It has been a great session with a lot of exploration, experimentation, sketching and 3D designing! For their final task the students had to create a synthesis of their 3D models and complete observational drawing.  These volumetric studies summarized the students' final outcomes.  Their impressive exhibition proves to be a culmination of all the creative knowledge gained during the intensive three weeks. Have a look at their impressive work!

Paper Folding Workshop

Score
Crease 
Cut
Fold

All of the above are key words when referring to paper modeling.  Students were introduced to a number of paper folding techniques during an intensive workshop.  They learned to manipulate paper and completely alter its form using a variety of methods.  The results were impressive, take a look at what the 3D design team achieved!

London Trip

Our exploratory walk in London was a great success! We visited the Tate Modern, a renowned art gallery located in central London. It is Britain's national gallery of international modern art.  Tate Modern is based in the former Bankside Power Station, an impressive industrial building that proves to be an incredible source of inspiration.  The Creative Drawing, Sketching & 3D Design students walked through the building, visited the gallery's permanent collections and also visited the Sonia Delaunay exhibition.  Sonia Delaunay (1885-1979) was a key figure in the Parisian avant-garde and became the European doyenne of abstract art.  Her thorough experimentations and use of a wide range of media produced groundbreaking paintings, textiles and clothes.  Her collaborations with choreographers, poets and manufacturers created a unique and versatile body of work that represented her innovative spirit. The students thoroughly enjoyed the gallery, constantly sketching and taking photos, gaining inspiration for their projects!
