Directions:

Step 1: Look at the artwork and answer questions 1-3.

Step 2: Stand up and take a big jump forward as if you were hopping right into the picture frame. Now, take a look at the direction of the sculpture and how it takes up space.

Step 3: Try to recreate the sculpture’s direction and movement using your body. How will your arms and legs be?

Did it require a lot of balance? Was your body close together, or spread apart with empty spaces?

Step 4: Create a sculpture that uses balance and empty (negative) space. Go to the next slide for step-by-step directions.
