IV. Plane And Edge: Animal

Plane: The element of form that can be described in two dementions, predominately characterized by surface.

Edge: The boundary of the surface

Freestanding in the Round: When a sculpture can stand on it's own and is visually appealing from all sides.

Form: The volume and shape of a three-dementional object, or the illusion of volume in a 2D work.

Closed Form: A relatively solid form with little negative space.

III. From Flat Material To Volume- Folded Paper

Low Relief- bas relief: a sculptural relief in which forms extend only slightly from the background; no figures are undercut.

High Relief: A relief is a sculptured artwork where a modelled form is raised, or, in a sunken-relief, lowered, from a plane from which the main elements of the composition project (or sink).

Primary: the shape of the outermost extremity of a form

Secondary Contours: are lines which deviate from the outer edge of the subject and provide visual information about the mass inside of the outermost edges.

Activated Space: The space controlled or energized by a 3-D piece.
