To get yourself familiar with the task, please review all of the information on the "Comparative Study" tab on this website, and answer the questions in the document below:
https://docs.google.com/a/cps.edu/document/d/1Cpl1BGIu8DfXd3y_CFM2NaoIlyilqjgHa0NIdpgIY5E/edit?usp=sharing You will need to make a copy of the document before you can type in your answers. This is due at the end of class today, 10/24. You are going to create some process portfolio pages that illustrate your process from start to finish. You will need to include:
You MUST cite all of your research. All images MUST be labeled, even your own! This is due Friday, 10/20. I am SO sad that I am leaving you all. I might cry.
When you are all finished with your projects....you will need to do a few things! 1. Answer the reflection questions found in the post below and add them to our shared folder. The folder for the questions is named "Street Art Questions". 2. Upload a SCANNED image of your artwork onto your google drive and ADD it to the folder named "Street ARTWORK". If you are working digitally, just upload and add it. If you are serious about what you made and want the world to see it, you can WHEATPASTE your work somewhere in the community! If you do this, please take a picture of it outside and upload that along with a scanned version! I will note a recipe down below. Keep the original artwork for yourself! 3. After you have uploaded your work, you can grade yourself using the rubric link below! Click the link......make a COPY of it....and name it YourName_StreetArtRubric You can HIGHLIGHT where you think you fall and I will use this as a guide when I actually grade you! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yj8ODescrizwifVIF8YlJjBc3oVN9d6zm1tfVMqlCu8/edit?usp=sharing Wheat Paste recipe: 1 Cup Water 10 Teaspoons Water 3 Tablespoons Flour 4 Tablespoons Sugar -Basically, you boil 1 cup of water. -While the 1 cup of water boiling, stir together 10 teaspoons of water with 3 tablespoons of flour. You should have a runny liquid. -When the water is boiled, add the water/flour mixture to the pot and stir it (while boiling) for about two minutes. You have to stir or else it will get super clumpy. -After the two minutes are up, take it off the heat, pour it into a jar or something, add the sugar, stir it until it dissolves, let it cool and WA-LA! You have wheat paste! *Note* When you go to wheat paste, you will need a paint brush or a roller or something. Brush some paste on the back, stick it where you want it, and brush it again over the top! You will need to put a layer on both sides or else it won't stick very well! Happy wheat pasting! [I didn't give you this idea] Artist Statement Reflection Questions Name:
Title: 1. Describe your work. What does it look like? What is the subject matter? 2. What is your message? What symbols or visual cues did you use to portray your message? 3. What materials, techniques or processes did you use? Why did you make these decisions? 4. What elements of art and principles of design did you use to make your work eye-catching? 5. What was the social or political reasoning for why you created the work you did? 6. Who/what had the greatest influence on the creation of this work? Why is it important to you? 7. What were your goals in creating this work? What emotions were you trying to evoke through your work? 8. Where do you imagine your street art living? Why? 9. Looking back at your notes from the artists we learned about in class, did any particular artist or artwork influence your process in anyway? Material choice? Subject matter? Style? Technique? I want you to work in multiples!
If you are wanting to wheat paste... You will need materials that are not water soluble!
If you are wanting to make stencils... You will need card stock to cut the stencil out of You will need a cutting grid to cut on You will need an xacto knife to cut with Note: you can make stencils on paper and then wheat paste them! If you have any other ideas, let me know! Paper for wheat pasting:
