SCULPTURE

In choosing a subject for sculpture, the


most important thing is material. The substances
available for sculpture are limitless. Some of the
earliest sculptures are made of bone or wood.
Two major sculpture process, subtractive and
addictive.

Stone and Bronze

Stone is durable, resistant to the element fire and other hazardous, on the other hand its heavy and
break easily. Marbles is the most beautiful stone; it has always been favorite materials in Greece and Italy
where it is plentiful.
Wood

The advantage of wood is that it is cheap, readily


available, and easy to cut. It also polishes well and has a
smoot shiny surface and beautiful color. The main drawback in
using wood is that is limited in size, and burn easily. Wooden
sculptures are known to discolor and decay easily in the
Philippine climate

Terra Cotta

Is usually referred as terra cotta, which literally means


"cook earth". It is usually painted and coated with heavy
glaze. Terra cotta breaks and chips easily. It is not strong
material and it cannot stand great strain or weight. Terra cotta
is nevertheless is a beautiful and versatile medium.

Ivory

Unlike the
wooden sculpture, a large number of old ivory statues have
survived to the present time. The survival due to the intensive
values of material. Ivory lends itself to technical mastery. It also popular to ordinary crafts people.
Many of statues of saints in Philippine churches and homes have head and arms made of ivory,
Ivory though, lacks the vigor of wooden statues. Like wood it also cracks.

Other material

The list of material available to the modern


sculpture has become longer. The metals aluminum,
chromium, and steel, plastic, chemically treated clay and
stone, for casting in liquid form are now being used. Plastic
is less expensive plastic and its lightness make it
preferable to other materials.

ARCHITECTURE

Architecture is an art. It is the art of designing, constructing a building. It also by its definition,
functional. One of the most primary purpose of architecture is to fulfil a need that led to its creation. The type
of construction to be employed also determined the choice of materials to be used. These maybe the
following: post-and-lintel, arch, and cantilever.

The Post-and-Lintel is the earliest of the three. It consists of two


vertical posts for support (post) and a horizontal one (lintel). The
post-and-lintel is generally used for wooden buildings.

The Arch is dominant in Roman architecture. It is an


architectural form build from pieces of wood called voussoir with joint
between them and are arrange in a semi-circle. All materials in an
arch are in compression. Since stonei can stand great pressure and
is durable, those method is typical for stone construction.

The Cantilever is any structural part of projecting horizontallyyand


anchored at one end only. This method of construction needs a beam with
a great tensile strength that can be securely fastened at the supported end.

Wood- Is the common building material today. Its advantage are its
abundance, relstive durability and high tensile and compression strength.

Stone- Is the material used in most great achitecture of the world where permanence is desired.
Steel- It is tough alloy of iron in variable amounts. The useof structural steel makes it possible for
the architect to build many of he present-day structures without worrying about the problem of space and
weight of other material. It has also made possible the building of the high-rise structure which are gery
popular these days.
