Abstract

My proposal was to create five larger than life-size heads out of aluminum. I did this to explore the importance of scale in the perception of sculptural objects. Scale, in this instance, is the size of an object as it relates to the viewer. If an object, is larger, it has more presence. Consequently, it will hold the viewers attention longer. My sculpted heads are much larger than normal human heads, and therefore they portray larger than normal human emotions. Outlined below is a brief chronicle of the process required to complete this endeavor.
