  • The Sculpture Department is now in newly refurbished studios in Battersea. The buildings are large, lofty and adaptable, serving both as pragmatic workshops/ studios and as open, airy exhibition spaces. There are large studios, and well-equipped workshops for metal-, stone- and wood-carving.

    There is equipment for gas, arc and argon welding and a foundry for casting in bronze, aluminium and other metals. There is also machinery for bending, drilling and grinding metals. Certain basic materials are provided, and each student has a budget to purchase their own materials. Facilities in other schools are available to students by arrangement. There is provision for an area where the light input is controlled to enable light and projection installation to be carried out. Part of the Fine Art Computer Cluster is based in the building in Howie Street. The Sculpture Department has its own video cameras and projectors. A digital camera and editing facility is available in the Fine Art School.

    During the first year, the Sculpture students hold an interim work-in-progress exhibition in the main galleries of the College in Kensington Gore. The department organises other exhibitions of student work at a variety of external venues. The Sculpture Department has use of the Paris studios for two six-week periods each year and has exchanges with Philadelphia and Calgary. There are several monetary prizes annually for student work in the department.
