Azima’s Answer

If you can't look for a job near you with job hunting websites, try visiting local galleries or art studios to ask if they need apprentices, as many places don't advertise online. Some schools, universities and community centers sometimes need art assistants, they might also provide you with job opportunities to work with sculptures or something related–who knows.

Another way to chase a career in art is if you're open to freelancing. Selling your sculptures through online advertising or even at local markets can be a great way to start building your career, allowing you to gain insights and build potential connections with your clients. In addition, networking at exhibitions or art fairs might lead to opportunities; it could also provide you with valuable connections and experience. Building relationships within the art community can open doors to collaborations and mentorship opportunities, which can help you grow as a sculptor.
