Mission The sculpture area at Washington State University integrates explorations of media and technique with theoretical consideration of spaces both on and off of the pedestal. Our curriculum encompasses traditional processes such as metal casting and mold making, as well as site-specific installation and use of experimental media. Some results of late have included ventures into time-based media, interdisciplinary collaborations and performance art.   We foster a responsive environment where cultural, technical, and conceptual concerns are treated equally, and students are strongly encouraged to excavate their own personal and aesthetic development.
