GROUP COLLAGE…!!

March 11, 2008

hmm..today..what short of a class we had..todays class more like a kindergarten school doing some crazy collage thing. But i do know that the creativity evolves from these basic concepts. Anyways the class was fun. Had a good team work i guess. Reminds me a lot of things though. Here is our final collage, done by me, Nasreen, Samah, Mayeesha and Jean. Other classmates also did their own collages in groups and i noticed a lot of them did something to do with the environment.

Anyways, Jean explained to class during a short talk on our collage. The dark colours at the bottom represent gravel or the road in life, the one everyone walks on. The green colours are also walked on but it is the grass that we walk on, and both have the meaning of the different paths in life that teenagers like us choose, I suppose.

Our Collage!

SO our class was shown a presentation by our lecturer Ms Teresa about a culture that is very influential in our lives especially for artist and designers. It is the Pop Art culture. Pop art started during the 1950s in Britain and its famed artists are such as Andy Warhol who did the Campbell Soup Cans artwork and Roy Lichtenstein who did the cartoon strip artwork.
