1. Around the room are all sort of art materials, some you have used before, some are new. 2. Your mission is to play and experiment with the different materials and media 3. There are no mistakes 4. You must work the entire time. 5. You must play with at least 4 different materials. 6. Fill up whole pages with your experiments All your experiments must be placed in your sketchbook with labels. a. Name of the material b. What you did c. What works and what doesn't work 6. Don't worry about subject matter at this point. If you don't know "what" to make, just start by playing with the materials. 7. Ask yourself questions What if? What if I added water? What if I printed? What if I added glue? What if I used an eraser? What if I tore the paper? What if I added black? What if I used a fork? What if I combined more than one material? What works? What doesn't work? What are you excited about? What would you like to know more about? How can you expand your idea of what are is? Example of Experimentation |
