Course objectives
The subject extends the skills and knowledge of technological processes and processes in the sphere of spatial creation in connection with the definition and realization of assigned topics. It develops and draws on the experience gained in the Spatial Creation 1, Spatial Creation 2 courses. This is an optional offer for art students who want to specialize in spatial creation with regard to the expected realization of the final work. The area of spatial creation includes a wide range of approaches from classical sculpture, sculpture or modeling to the subject in connection with the development of modern art of the 20th century to the present. It deals with spatial creation in the broadest context of free art and architecture.
Learning outcomes

The assigned tasks and spatial etudes are directed to material realizations in the interior, exterior, public space and architecture.
