Traditionaly the materials used for the manufacture of sculpture in Europe and the west were materials that were permanent. High forms of sculpture and large public works were often produced in expensive durable materials, primarily bronze and stone such as marble, limestone, porphyry, and granite. More rarely precious materials such as gold and ivory were used for chryselephantine works. More common and less expensive materials were used for sculpture for wider consumption, including wood such as oak, box and lime; terracotta and other ceramics; spelter; and metals such as pewter.
Although rarely used for final works, the sculptor would make use of ephemeral materials such as plaster of paris, wax, clay and even plasticene in the case of the victorian Alfred Gilberts maquettes for 'Eros' at Piccadilly Circus, London.
Perhaps the least elitist of these media is sand, as it is used by young and old to create sand castles, some of which can be amazingly large and complex.
traditional sculpture materials are still in wide use today. However, advancements in technology and changes ihave broadened the range of materials scupltors can choose to use, including glass and sand, aluminum, polymers and many other synthetic materials, and liquid crystals.
Some sculptures are multimedia, for example sound sculptures which, as their name implies, produce sound. Many artists use video and computers in their sculptures as well. Computers and motors can also be used in sculptures, leading to works that may be classified as robotic.
Sculptors are constantly searching for new ways to make art and for new materials to make it with, including blood, feces, dead animals. See also body fluids in art. Andy Goldsworthy is notable at a sculptor for his use of almost entirely natural materials in natural settings.
In his late writings, Joan Miró even proposed that some day sculptures might be made of gases; see gas sculpture.
