PROJECT 2
ANONYMOUS ACT
OF BEAUTY
OBJECTIVE
We are creating a work of art that is affective, anonymous, and 'beautiful.'
Criteria:
-
Must be Anonymous.
-
You must document it (ANONYMOUS).
-
Your documentation can be a photo or series of photos, a short video, or a written statement that fully describes your action (you can get poetic with it).
-
Push yourself outside of your comfort zone.
-
Must submit a written reflection about the process (2 paragraphs min - 1-page max), including your inspirations and influences including artists/artwork. (You can include photos.)
WHAT DOES THIS LOOK LIKE?
Think about where you are.
What are the resources are around you?
Can your work be site-specific,
meaning it resides and interacts with
the environment its in...
or can it exist anywhere?
Who is your demographic?
Age, Class, Race...?
Human or Non-Human?
Will it be interactive?
What about time?
Ephemeral Art
"under a concept of transience in time"
aka. non-permanent, perishable, temporary.
Observe your surroundings. Consider your audience. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...can you make something that affects someone else?
It's a no go!
No: Rock stacking, Chalk Drawing/Writing, Plagiarism (cite your sources), Illegal Stuff / Be Mindful of Potential Damage
Push yourself!
Make work that you want to make, work that means something to you, not just fulfilling an assignment.
