Drawing and Sketching

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  This subject is the basis of visual thinking, a powerful resource for the creation and communication of ideas. More than a subject serving Communication Design, Drawing and Sketching is essential to organize thinking, to project, to visualize ideas and plan actions, constituting an indispensable work tool for any area. Visual thinking is a technique for analyzing the surrounding world, learning and creating solutions. It is an innate skill that we all must relearn and practice. Visual language makes it possible to make a simultaneous relationship between various sensory and emotional stimuli allowing us to understand, retain and communicate information that is much more complex than any other type of language. Furthermore, it is a universal language facilitating interculturality and international diffusion. It is intended to complement conventional drawing programs by exposing students to different drawing approaches and applications.
