Deconstruct Project Guidelines
Use three to five found objects. For each object, deconstruct it from it’s original form. Use these deconstructed parts to create your final solution. The degree to which you deconstruct an object is your choice. Here is the catch – you have to use all parts of the original form. And, final solution should be meaningful and materials significant - so carefully choose your found objects.

Materials: found objects of your choice and whatever
adhesives/methods of attachment are needed. No size limit.
This assignment is based off the ideas encompassed in Assemblage art. Assemablage is the use of found or every day objects in visual art. The roots of assemblage can be traced back to early twentieith-century European collage. What items are used and how they are display/incorporated is significant to the visual language of assemblage art. To begin this assignment, check out the artists I posted on this blog, under the "Assemblage Deconstruct Visual Research" category.
Read the article entitled "Assemblage", link below. Create a vocab list for the aricle and write a response. Post vocab and response on your blog.
Assemblage, Zwirner and Wirth, link here.

This brief statement regarding the history of assemblage, from MOMA. Link here.
A drawing will accompany the final solution. Size and medium your choice. Also, what you choose to draw is your choice. The entire form? Detail(s)? An aerial perspective? Color? Or not? The drawing should demonstrate time and effort. The drawing is due the last week of classes.
Here is a list of what needs to appear on your blog for this assignment:
-Vocab for article "Assemblage".
-Response to article "Assemblage'.
-At least three influences/ideas that you thought about/looked at/read/listened to while formulating your ideas for this project.
-Any in process pictures, scans of sketches and/or notes.
-Professional images of the final solution. Need at least three images for 3D work. In addition, detail images are also helpful.
-An image of your drawing.
-A written statement about your final solution. The statement should explain how and why you chose your objects and what decisions you made when deconstructing and assembling.
