      Sculptor’s studio

      The scuptor's studio allows working with various, above all, plastic materials such as clay, plaster, concrete, wax, latex, silicone, and polymer resin, as well as ceramic substances.

      Students are busy making models, plasticizing, ceramic printing, as well as using different casting techniques. They, for instance, work on sculptures, objects and installations, on industrial design models, on architectural models as well as on body moulding and accessories. Basic knowledge in dealing with spatial design is acquired too.
