2D into 3D
I can explore how pattern can express identity and be transformed from a 2D design into 3D forms.
Lesson details
Key learning points
- The key elements of 2D design are the elements of art and these are important in creating 3D form.
- Imagining how 2D elements relate to 3D space uses concepts of depth, volume, and perspective.
- When drawing in 3D start with basic geometric shapes to establish structure, then build complexity in your 3D drawing.
Keywords
Depth - where an artwork looks like it is three-dimensional
Pattern - is a repeated design or motif that can be found in nature, art, and design
Visualise - to form a picture in your mind or imagine how something looks
Form - the visual appearance, structure or constitution of an object, referring to three-dimensional objects
Common misconception
2D drawings cannot be transformed into 3D forms.
2D drawings are like a blueprint for 3D forms. By imagining how shapes in a drawing could extend into space, students can add depth, volume, and perspective to give their designs a 3D appearance.
Equipment
Midtone paper, tracing paper, pencils, chalks or oil pastels, clay, tools (loop tool, potter's knife), baking paper or fabric, and water or slip.
