VIRTUAL WORKSHOP: Introduction to Projection Mapping
Nov 30 - Dec 9, 2021
Tuesdays & Thursdays, 3PM - 5PM
Concept
In this course we explore how projected image can be mapped to a variety of surfaces and materials to embellish, enhance, enliven, and/or activate them. Each student explores how projection mapping may be used as a way of creating active and time-based surfaces in their works. Demonstrations cover the three main aspects of this process: digital video and image manipulation, creating a 3D volume out of materials such as foamcore, cardboard, and fabric, and mapping digital media to constructed forms via computer and projector. All students should have access to a cheap projector for the duration of the workshop.
Media
Basic foam core, cardboard, and fabric construction, digital video and image manipulation, projection mapping software, mapping to 3D surfaces via computer and projector.
This virtual class meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3 – 5PM MST via Zoom Video Conferencing software (download free from Zoom.us). An Anderson Ranch staff member coordinates the class via the online platform.

The Brutal and the Delicate: Steel Combined with Soft Materials
Carl Reed
Tuition $1,160
Code S0101-24
Throughout art history, steel is a material commonly associated with industry, violence, and strength. This workshop challenges such connections by investigating ways that steel can become visually delicate, and by inventing new meanings and visual relationships through combining steel with materials with opposite characteristics. Exercises address technical and creative inquiries regarding how steel is cut, shaped, and physically joined, and how to challenge material assumptions if steel becomes a secondary, rather than primary, compositional element. We explore the aesthetic and technical consequences of combining steel with soft, vulnerable, contradictory, and unexpected materials.

Building with Clay and Steel
Trey Hill
Tuition $1,600
Code S0203-24
Investigate new materials and approaches to building sculpture in this two-week exploratory workshop. Students discover innovative ways to combine different materials, creating dynamic mixed-media sculptures. This workshop experiments with adding different materials to students’ work—such as clay, steel, and found objects—while considering how each adds formal information and intensified content. This rigorous studio environment gives access to a variety of new materials and fresh ways of approaching students’ studio practice. The workshop is open to students working in any media who are looking to try something different and add new skills to their toolbox.

Thinking Positive: Molding and Casting the Sculptural Form
Hae Won Sohn
Tuition $1,450
Code C0304-24
The workshop focuses on reverse thinking between the cast form and the mold. While learning the basics of plaster mold-making and slip-casting, students are introduced to the versatility of molds by exploring the interplay of the negative and positive forms created in the casting process. Students are encouraged to explore molds beyond their conventional use as a way to produce multiples and discover the possibilities of mold-making as a generative tool for creating new forms. With access to the kilns and ceramic and sculpture studios, students are able to create unique mixed-media and ceramic sculptures.
