The difference between the perception of figure and formatting in relief and drawing courses in sculpture art education

Abstract

In traditional academic education, the quality of drawing is considered as the basis of three dimensional designs and applications. This point of view is considered to fulfil the expectation of having the same type of students. However, it delays getting the students to demonstrate different perspectives and creative features. The purpose of this study is to observe the process in terms of the students' achievements and performance in two and three dimensional areas of application and to scrutinise the outcomes in different practical courses as being drawing, relief and sculpture. This study, based on qualitative research methods, observed Drawing, Sculpture and Relief courses, and the visual perception results in different and not proportional outcomes in two and three dimensional shaping, in drawing and in relief applications. Selection and/or peer review under responsibility of Prof. Dr. Ayse Cakir Ilhan.
