Sculpture 3d – a masterclass on sculptural objects
“Personally, I am looking for students who are at the point of breaking through in their career. I think it is the most interesting point of your life, where you have to make important decisions, it requires change of their current path. I am hoping with this masterclass I will inspire the students and I can motivate them into a successful career. I will strive to fulfil student goals by providing an interesting course. I will teach them about designing, sculpting, managing their own art studio, and other things that have crossed my path as an artist.“ – Nick Ervinck

The creation of sculptural Objects through use of digital technology is an exciting field where masonry meets digital sculpting. Masters of ZBrush, a prime digital sculpting tool, use their skills to create real word objects with the help of 3D-printing. Traditional sculptors bring new edges to their craft with the help of digital tools to create forms not possible before.
The masterclass fosters the dialogue inside the interdisciplinary team to get new perspectives on the matter. New sparkling ideas become reality through hand-on and practical work with machinery and systems.
