Making Your Mark: The Figure in Nature, from Prehistory to Today is an upper-level studio art course open to undergraduate and graduate UNL students, as well as K-12 teachers. Students will earn 3 credits in an intensive, two-week field course taught at Cedar Point Biological Station in western Nebraska. Professor Santiago Cal will teach techniques, materials, and concepts to explore nature through artistic expression.
This mixed media course will explore artistic depictions of the figure in and on nature. Students will use a variety of processes, including drawing, painting, sculpture, photography and performance, to create works of art within this particular subject. Each student will be assisted in developing a series of works using the Cedar Point Biological Station as the source environment. To enable new ways of approaching the topic, a lecture series examining how artists have interpreted this subject will be embedded in the course.
