Books as Art Forms Books aren’t just for reading any more!
How do we create a piece of art from a book? If you take something Ordinary… change it up and add some elements….. Then you get something…. EXRAORDINARY!
For this Project you will….. •Create a non-objectional sculpture out of a modified book •Alter/deconstruct a book by adding, folding, cutting parts, and adding elements, etc. •Paint or Draw on it to make it more interesting and unify your idea/theme •Use AT LEAST 3 Elements and Principles of Design
Materials: -Well put together hard bound book -Scissors -Glue -Pens, Paint, Brushes, Pencils, Sharpies, Crayons, Markers -Ribbon, Buttons, Beads, String, Yarn -Anything you clear Through your teacher -Hole Punches or crazy scissors
How to begin… •Experiment by manipulating paper, bend, fold, and cut it. Bend your book to see how you want to position it. •Sketch AT LEAST 2 ideas in your sketchbook of different ideas you wish to pursue. •Research artists if needed •Create AT LEAST one experimental paige in your sketchbook. (This may be based on any theme. This should be your chance to try different techniques.)
Let YOUR imagination Explode! Do not copy your neighbor or ask Mrs. Piercy for ideas. Come up with your own. Be inspired by The world! Use the Elements and Principles to guide you. Go Beyond the Ordinary!
