It is the branch of the visual arts that operates
in three dimensions. It is the art of shaping

Ivory - used for small carvings like crosses, chess
pieces, and small heads of small statues of saints.

63. Carving
Carving is a subtractive process; that is, it
involves removing unwanted portions of the raw
materials to reveal the form that the artist has
visualized. Wood, stone and ivory are materials
employed in this process.
65. Modeling
It is process of manipulating soft materials to
create a three-dimensional form. Unlike
carving, modeling requires soft substances that
can be easily and rapidly shaped by the sculptor's
hands.

techniques of assemblage and construction consist
of combining and joining various materials to form
a three-dimensional object.

themselves.

arcs over and through the air.
