The human body continues to be the object of much of the world's art in our times. This studio course addresses the body as a concept and examines this concept's complexities and contradictions. The work in this course approaches the human body as the object of science, as a construction of memory, and as an expression of gender and status identity. Students are charged with creating engaging and thoughtful works through metaphor, symbolism, analogy, spectacle, humor and site. Prerequisite: SCPT 205.

Through an understanding of the 3-D world through experiments in 4-D elements, students examine what is possible in relation to kinetic approaches, time-based materials, and available technologies. By researching and exploring 4-D approaches, including performance and installation, as well as non-traditional material usage, and technology, students develop projects that are experiential rather than object-based.
