1.

Looking at the image, which object or part did the artist make unusually large or distorted? Based on your own feeling, why do you think the artist wanted that specific part to stand out?

2.

Does the artwork feel "complete" and "balanced" to you? Mention one thing (a color, a shape, or a pattern) that the artist repeated to make the whole picture look like it belongs together (Unity).

Instructions: Imagine you are given a huge block of cheese and a bucket of wet clay.

The Cheese Challenge:

To make a face out of the cheese, you need to cut away the parts you don't need. Is this Subtractive or Additive?. Why is it risky if you accidentally cut too much?

​The Clay Challenge:

To make the same face out of clay, you keep adding small pieces until it looks right. What do we call this process?. Why is this "easier" to correct than the cheese/wood carving?

This is about the Perla Soap Carving you passed to me.

The Experience:

Since you used a knife/chisel to remove parts of the soap, what sculptural process did you perform?


​If you were to do it again and you wanted to show "Speed or Energy" (Futurism), what would you change in your carving's lines or shape?
