Question

1. what is the sculpture technique where material is added rather than removed?

a. carving
b. additive sculpture
c. casting
d. assemblage

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Carving involves removing material (e.g., chiseling from a block), so it's not adding.
• Option b: Additive sculpture is defined as a technique where material is added (like building up with clay or wax) instead of removed.
• Option c: Casting is about pouring material into a mold, not primarily about adding vs removing in the direct sense of building up by adding.
• Option d: Assemblage is about putting existing pieces together, not about adding material to build a sculpture (it's more about combining pre - made elements).

Answer:

b. Additive sculpture
