The process of carving a sculpture from a solid block of material is known as:

  1. Casting

  2. Chiseling

  3. Modeling

  4. Assemblage


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Chiseling involves using a chisel and hammer to remove material from a solid block, creating a sculpture.

Which technique involves pouring molten metal into a mold to create a sculpture?

  1. Carving

  2. Welding

  3. Casting

  4. Assemblage


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Which material is commonly used for creating sculptures through the process of modeling?

  1. Marble

  2. Bronze

  3. Clay

  4. Wood


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Clay is a versatile material often used for modeling sculptures due to its malleability and ability to be shaped by hand.

The technique of joining metal pieces together using heat and pressure is known as:

  1. Carving

  2. Welding

  3. Casting

  4. Assemblage


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Welding involves joining metal pieces together using heat and pressure, creating a strong bond between them.
