New term, new art students! In this project, students were given three Styrofoam cups and challenged to transform these simple, everyday objects into a complex sculptural form in which the original “cup” is no longer seen. They focussed on applying elements and principles of design, creating a strong composition through positive and negative space, demonstrating physical and visual balance, and incorporating a sense of visual movement. The goal was to push students to see beyond the ordinary and explore how simple forms can evolve into something entirely new and expressive.
