The studio course deals with the development of visual structures and the relationship among two, three, and four (time) dimensions. Through structured projects, beginning with point and visual rhythm, the course will explore line, plane, and color. Students will learn the fundamental principals to organizing these multi-dimensions as they relate to graphics, interior design, photography, etc. and how to make informed intelligent visual decisions. The relationship between the traditional crafts, such as painting, sculpture, and the new electronic media arts will be discussed and studied. Offered every semester.
