PROJECT 2: GO BOX YOURSELF
IN THIS PROJECT: we are going to investigate contemporary graffiti and street art. We are going to look at Os Gemeos’s, twin brothers, who have a bright,
personable and fun style of street art. We are going to continue exploring the theme of identity by using art and non art materials to create 2-4 3D box-structured
portraits. Each portrait will enlarge and will express a different feature, mood or quality of you. We will learn how Os Gemeo’s work is a public styled art
that engages viewers and activates space. The final step of the project is to transform each student’s individual work into a collective large scale 3D relief that will
be installed in school space
WHAT TO EXPECT: 1. Gain inspiration and learn Os Gemeos’s stylized instillation art to help you create your 3-D box-portraits.
2. You will plan out your 3-D box-portraits by drawing, sketching and making maquettes of your 3-D box-portraits.
3. Enlarging your sketched out maquettes imagery onto your non art box portrait surfaces. We will outline the features of portraits and then unify each box portrait
by painting the entire 3-D surface.
4. Turning our individual box-portraits into an entire class project by turning them classes work into an instillation art piece in the school.
You are required to bring in cardboard box portrait surface for you and the class. These can include, but are not limited to: cereal boxes, shoe boxes,
milk cartons, kleenex boxes. Any cardboard box!
