Some general forms of sculpture are:
1. Free-standing sculpture, sculpture that is enclosed on all sides, except the base, by space. It is also known as sculpture "in the round", and is destined to be viewed from any angle.
2. Jewellery
3. Kinetic sculpture - involves aspects of physical motion
(i). Fountain - the sculpture is designed with moving water
(ii). Mobile (see also Calder's Stabiles.)
(iii). Bust - demonstration of a person from the chest up
(iv). Equestrian statue - typically showing a major person on horseback
4. Relief - the sculpture is still attached to a background; types are bas-relief, alto-relievo, and sunken-relief
5. Site-specific art
6. Stacked art - a form of sculpture formed by assembling substance and 'stacking' them
