Karis, Peter JosephThis document focuses on the development of my artwork during my three year studio practice at the University of Maryland, College Park. It discusses the evolution of the various types of work and how they function artistically and conceptually. It culminates in an explanation of my work in the thesis exhibition, with which I have discovered the importance of the experience of an artwork as a crucial functional element of the work.ThesisFine artschainExperienceSculpture
