Some say sculpture lives all around us, in our surroundings from day to day lives. Even the most anatomical parts of us can be turned into beautiful artwork. Students enrolled in Colorado State University's sculpting class have turned to studying body parts and body form for these next group of sculpture works they've created. A foot, a hand, a person laying down, a human form dancing, and many more can all be found in sculpted pieces of cardboard here in the Visual Arts building hallway. Yup, it's pretty amazing what you can do with recycled cardboard. What most would consider pieces of trash, others can find masterpieces in the making. I also noticed a wide variety of color choices which was a decision each individual artist had to come to. As I walked through the bunch, I found myself not just thinking of what it is exactly I am looking at, but the form it took and the presence it possessed in the dark lonely hallway. Some pieces demanded from its passer-byers the attention it deserved, screaming for someone to take a second, if not a minute of their precious time to gander at the sculpture someone had worked so hard on. Sculpture takes not only great talent and skill, but great patience as well.
