  • What are carved wood figures in African art?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • What is the difference between wood carving and sculpture?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021
    The difference between carving and sculpture is that carving is a carved object, whereas sculpture is the art of shaping figures or designs — because sculpture can involve adding material (i.e., working with plaster, creating a mold to be cast in bronze), it is considered “additive” versus the “subtractive” act of carving.
