(Transfers knowledge and skills to new contexts with considerable effectiveness)

The sculpture effectively assembles the found art

items: there is a focal point, the objects are well
balanced, the movement & rhythm create effective
leading lines throughout the piece.
Evidence of care and planning can be seen in the
final presentation/placement of the objects.
Degree of detail and complexity in the images
(minimalism is of course an option, if intentional)
The surface treatment and support/base
enhance the presentation of the sculpture, are not
distracting, and help to unify the final presentation.
