Combine (Wall Piece) crit Feb. 11







THERE IS NO IN-CLASS WORK DAY FOR THIS PROJECT, YOU WILL HAVE 2 WEEKS TO COMPLETE IT AT HOME.

For the next assignment you will make a sculpture to be exhibited on the black wall in the critique area. Your sculpture will hang on the black critique wall, we can put screws into the wall at whatever height you need during the critique. Like Rauschenberg, you will use both found objects and traditional art supplies. Your sculpture can be abstract or representational, and the materials are up to you. The sculpture must be at least 4' in one direction. See if you can find humor, parody or word play in the way you put your piece together.
