Collage Project

My goal for this project was to reurpose images I had already. I thought of all the art history flashcards that I have made for art history 2 with the images printed out. I saved them for something, and it turns out it came in hand for this project. I went at this assignment with no plan. I felt if I planned it out I would overthink it and it would not be completed. I started by ripping the photos off of the flashcards, or cutting them out, and then gluing them together onto one sheet. Some of the photos were ripped in half, and I decided to combine them with other ripped images. Once they were all glued together, the piece looked overwhelming and I wanted something to mute the images. So, I added tissue paper on top and glued it with modpodge and water. It didn’t turn out as translucent as I wanted it to be, but I went along with it. The next thing was to add more to the top of the piece and I decided string would be a cool way to create imagery. I don’t know what it means, but I added it and liked the way it turned out.
