Sculptures

What is a Sculpture?


     - Sculpture is three-dimensional artwork created by shaping or combining hard materials—typically stone such as marble—or metal, glass, or wood. Softer ("plastic") materials can also be used, such as claytextiles, plastics, polymers and softer metals. The term has been extended to works including sound, text and light.
