The monochromatic art assignment was to create a collage using mostly or only one color the color I chose for the project was green. Once the college was glued down and sealed we needed to make a poem about the color we had chosen. We needed to use only one color because it was a monochromatic collage and mono meaning one from the Greek origin.
I chose this art project for my SLC website because I enjoyed writing the poem and creating a collage out of magazines. It was a very calming and soothing assignment for the end of the quarter which is why it was one of my favorites. I also chose this assignment to represent my art for this quarter because I think art shows a lot about a person's character and I find that interesting how we all interpret things differently. This art project demonstrates communication 21st century skills because I am able to bring a connection to another human being using written language (my poem) and through the form of art (my collage). I believe art is more of a construct, everyone differs certain things in different ways even though we all have a similar general idea. So through my art I am able to communicate with someone which is why I think it represents the communication skill. This work example demonstrates how I have been growing in my art and how over time it has progressed getting better and better. It also demonstrates my current growth because I have grown fondly of art over time more and more. Before I chose this class because I didn’t want to take spanish but I have come to love the art assignments we have learned and done in class. Although If I was to do this exact project again I would have more layering in my images of the collage. I would like some more pops of color and the little pieces to layer over each other. On the other hand I think the poem was quite good and I don't know what I would change about it yet. |
