Collage, Division 3
This term, students learned that collage is a pretty broad medium, and a fairly recent one, too. It can be an accessible way to approach ideas and concepts, allowing artists to filter and organize images and techniques within a constrained space. Viewing and reflecting on modern and contemporary works, students began the term by examining how artists explore issues such as identity and story. The dramatic variety in technical approach, use of materials, and message encouraged students to think about how they might approach a project.
After selecting several artists to look at more deeply, students translated their understandings to ideas. Thinking about the visual and thematic content, they shared sketches with each other as they prepared to bring their concepts to life.
