TASK
CREATE AN ARTWORK THAT INFORMS THE VIEWER ABOUT YOU, THE SELF, THROUGH YOUR COLLECTION.
The final product may have a three dimensional element, yet time and the collection will restrain the size of the response. There is no defined medium for this work.
Technically - You will need to carefully consider and research methods of joining, adhering the multiple possibilities in your collection. Ask yourself - How have specific artists respond to this? Learn from others.
Because we're living in a world where recycling has become a necessity (rather than an option) it's important to think "outside the box," so to speak, when it comes to disposing of materials.
Artists have been using recycled materials in their mixed media art pieces for decades.
FOCUS
student’s develop an artwork from either a personal collection of importance or disposed collected materials - that have an intrinsic value and shows an understanding of changing identity and ownership in the fluid transitions
( shells, thongs, cd’s, dvd’s, magazines, games, cards, model cars, sunglasses, caps, comics, etc).
