Sculptures have three dimensions and are created through carving, modeling, or assembling materials. There are traditional sculptures like free-standing or relief sculptures as well as contemporary sculptures using assemblage, kinetics, welding, glass, or symbols. Contemporary sculptures from the 1960s-1970s explored new materials and methods. Assemblage sculptures combine found objects while kinetic sculptures incorporate motion. Welded sculptures fuse sheets of metal and glass sculptures integrate irregular glass shapes. Symbolic sculptures interpret designs with cultural significance.

SCULPTURES
SCULPTURES -has three dimesions (height, width and depth)
-created by either carving,
modeling or assembling parts together KINDS OF SCULPTURE 1. Traditional a. Free-standing b. Relief 2. Contemporary a. Assemblage b. Kinetic Sculpture c. Welded Sculptures d. Use of glass e. Symbolic Sculptures Traditional Sculptures
Sculptures are traditionally
created by removing parts of the material or by building up the form through modeling. Free-standing -also called sculpture in the round -can independently stand in space -has flat horizontal base -all its sides contribute to the overall form of sculpture Oblation by Guillermo Tolentino Relief -does not have a flat base -is projected from a flat surface -has two types a. Low relief or bas-relief which projects slightly from the flat surface b. High relief Low Relief
High Relief Sculpture in the Contemporary Setting
During 60's and 70's, artist
began exploring use of different materials and methods, forming new types of sculpture in the contemporary setting. Assemblage -formed by putting together materials such as found objects, pieces of paper, sponges, wood, scraps, and other materials. Assemblage Sculpture Kinetic Sculpture -considered as a sculpture in motion because the entire sculpture or some parts are moving with the wind or are vibrating with the surrounding air -a mobile is said to be simplest form of a kinetic sculpture Kinetic Sculpture Welded Sculptures -involves the process of connecting sheets of metals together by using an acetylene or electric torch Eduardo Castrillo -most of his artworks are welded sculptures Welded Sculpture Use of glass Ramon Orlina -used glass in the table pieces, murals and sculptures which are usually unified into a framework Imelda Pilapil -used glass planes with irregular shapes and linear patterns Glass Sculpture Symbolic Sculptures Interpretation of Abdulmari Imao on Okir design -Maranao design tradition that is typically used in word craving -Produced four contemporary series of Okir a. Sarimanok b. Sari-mosque c. Sari okir d. Calligraphic sculptures Okir Design Symbolic Sculpture This graceful sculpture is of two intertwined parts, each of them cut from an ovoid, the symbol of life.
