3D Discourses, Techniques and Technology Installations

This subject, which is part of the Languages, Techniques and Technologies subject, is a space for workshop and fundamentally practical experimentation. As in all the subjects of this subject, it relates, on the one hand, the knowledge of materials and their behaviours, and on the other, the learning of different techniques and technologies with the emergence of language and the aesthetic and communicative dimensions of the artistic practice. Focusing on the field of the three-dimensional, we will make use of different techniques and materials from the perspective of new materialisms, which provide an enriching perspective to contemporary sculpture by focusing on the materiality itself of the work of art and how materials can play an active role in creating artistic meaning. This not only opens up new creative possibilities, but also stimulates a deeper dialogue about the relationship between art and the material world around us in this era of material and conceptual transformations.

The subject offers a space for exploration to delve into the mediums and processes of three-dimensional artistic practices situated in a specific context. It is about developing the organization of three-dimensional work processes, the appropriate use of their documents and tools, going through their different phases: ideation, development, conceptualization, and production of installed three-dimensional works. The aim is to approach the work and technical-material production processes and their installation in space, that is, to develop three-dimensional practice and contextual sensitivity. It also aims to delve deeper into the installation of three-dimensional mediums, moving from the installation gesture to the installation format.

• Acquisition and demonstration of advanced understanding of theoretical and practical aspects and of work methodology in the field of artistic practices.
• Resolution of specific professional problems and situations with entrepreneurial and innovative attitudes.
• Elaboration of orthographically and grammatically correct reports and written documents (mainly of a technical nature) in Catalan, Spanish and English.
• Conduct of investigations integrating a feminist and egalitarian perspective.
• Development of formalization processes and installation of three-dimensional works using techniques and tools in an accurate and creative way.
• Ability to analyse the specific problems and conditioning factors of the formalization and installation of three-dimensional media and formats, and to approach them consciously and creatively in practice.
• Shows responsibility, sensitivity and technical imagination in the work process with three-dimensional media and their installation.
• Activate, through installation, intentional disposition and intensification of specific elements, the intrinsic qualities and associative resonances that must be taken into account in a preferential way in a work made with two-dimensional media.
