Second Hand Sculpture: (mid-term)
· Reference: This final must be chosen from a real sculpture. The sculpture must be an original three dimensional sculptures not a photo, or wall hanging. One that is used to show beauty, enhance the decor. Once the sculpture has been chosen you must copy the sculpture into word, and have the following on the paper as well. This will be turned in with the sculpture. Must have a print out of the following: title of sculpture, artist name, copy of sculpture, material used (sculpture is made from…), student name, student hour and class.
· Unknown artists are not allowed. No abstracts will be allowed you must have a sculpture that you can tell what it is, such as an animal or a person.
· You will be using second hand objects to create a replica of your sculpture. That means no copingwhat the artist did or used to create his/ her sculpture, i.e. if the artist used crayons, or horseshoes you may not.
· Medium: You will be using second hand items from the garage, basement, storage, grandma and grandpa’s home, your home etc. You may also go to the D.I. or if there is a yard-sale you may purchase these items. You need to remember these are not items you will throw away but items you would give away, sale or donate.
· You may not use items that spoil such as food, or from nature such as branches or rocks, etc.
· Attachment: You may use wire, hot glue, bolts, anything that will hold your sculpture together but realize nothing new or just bought to do so.
· This is not origami, or cutting a pasting so no paper, paper Mache, clay/play dough, soap carved, or carved wood, legos, pop cans, and plastic bottles. All must be constructed with found objects and constructed together no cutting or carving. You may cut a little bit but the items must be intact to be a correct sculpture.
· Non-Usable: You may not use cotton balls, toothpicks, Q- tips, popsicle sticks, action figures, cardboard, or anything found on the floor that should have gone in the garbage. Such as wrappers, ripped socks etc. These items are not found at yard sales or used again for sculpting, if a figure needs to be used it must be constructed no pieces together from body parts of an old action figure.
· You may enhance your sculpture with feathers, beads etc.
· The sculpture must withstand the travel from home and fit through the doors. They must be at least one foot in height or length, or larger.
· Best Results: Things to consider for this project: take time to think about what will work the best and don’t wait till the last moment to put it together. These sculptures are to have creativity, stability, and thought put into it. Best results are those who have taken the time to put into the project.
· Parents you are to be a part of this grade. I need you to watch you student and when they have finished please give a scoring grade from 1 – 25. The highest being you feel they have put forth a good effort, worked hard and shown creativity with this sculpture. You are not to help. This should be their work not a parent or sibling.
