Final Project

During the past months that you've been in ART 20 you enhanced your already exciting artistic skills and also acquired new skills. In the final project you will create a persuasive, original art piece were you showcase your creativity and technical abilities.  

The Final Project consist of three parts:
  1. Your original Art piece
  2. Artist statement about your work
  3. 5 minute presentation to class

Choose one of the four options:
  • Option #1: Create a political or social statement about today's society. ​
    • Choose an issue you care deeply about, and would want to try and do something about. This issue should be something that is a general issue or concern in society somewhere in the world. Be sure you are picking a general issue. 
    • What do you think about today's society? What do you like or dislike about it? What would you like to change? What exactly is happening in the world that perplexes you – and what do you want to say about it? These are some questions you can ask yourself when choosing a particular topic for your art piece. 
    • Some ideas of things you might be interested in depicting/standing up for or against:
      • pollution/environmental concerns, GMO
      • Racism, homelessness,  poverty
      • Refugee crisis, war,
      • verbal abuse, bullying, depression
      • discrimination, Islamophobia
    • Create an original art work that makes a statement about today's society.  It should encourage  viewer to think about it. Think outside the box. 
  • ​Option #2: If you could go anywhere in the world right now, where would you go?
    • ​Answer this question by creating an original artwork. Think outside the box. Don't just draw the obvious thing such as a simple beach for example. 
    • Show off your artistic skills and creativity.
  • Option #3: Create a replica of a famous Art work
    • Choose a famous art piece of your choice and create a replica with a twist.
    • Incorporate your own style. Visit the following website click here to choose a famous art work.
    • Be creative. The more creative the "twist" is the more marks you get. If you create a replica that just changes the colour scheme is not really creative.
  • Option #4: Warning! Reflections in this mirror may be distorted by  Society's idea of..............(fill in the blank)
    • ​Fill in the blank. 
    • Illustrate this statement in an original art piece. 
    • You can incorporate the written statement (words) in your art work, but don't have to. You can just let the pictures speak.

Art Medium

In a fine art context, "art medium" refers to the art materials or artist supplies used to create a work of art. 
You are free to choose an art medium of your choice. Choose the art medium that you feel the most comfortable and confident. 
  • Acrylic paint
  • Watercolour
  • Soft/Oil Pastels
  • Pencil
  • Spray paint

Part #2: Artist Statement

How do I start?
Take five minutes and think about why you do what you do when making compositions in art – especially a specific piece. 
  • How do you explain your work? Linked to research you did? Art you viewed in the past, seen in books, on internet?
  • How did you feel when working on this composition? Did you experiment with a technique?
  • What are your favourite things about your work?
  • What is your style?
  • What patterns emerge in your work?
  • Is there a pattern in the way you select you subject? In the way you use color, texture or light?
  • What techniques did you use? Painting, sketching…? 
Jot down short phrases that capture your thoughts. Don’t worry about making sense or connections yet.

Now think a bit deeper…
Write five sentences that tell the truth about your connection to your work. If you are stuck, start by filling in the blanks below
  • When I work with__________ I am reminded that___________.
  • I began this piece by______________.
  • I knew this piece is done when__________________.
  • When my work is going well, I am filled with a sense of _____________.
  • When people see my work, I’d like them to ________________.

Putting it all together: Ways to structure your paragraphs; 150 words max, better if less than 100 words.
  • Begin with a simple statement of why you did the work you did. Support that statement, telling the reader more about your goals and aspirations.
  • Tell the reader how you make decisions in the course of your work. How and why do you select materials, techniques, themes? Keep it simple and tell the truth.
  • Tell the reader how, or if, your current work grew out of your prior work or life experiences. What are you exploring, attempting, challenging by doing this work.



Part #3: Presentation

On January 7th, 2016 all students will present their final project to the class. In these five minutes you will present your artist statemnt, don't read it! 
​
Include in your presentation:
  • What option did you choose?
  • How did you create your art?
  • What were your  goals with this artwork?
  • What are your overall thought of your artwork? Don't start praising yourself with the highest confidence. Even if the artwork is great. Be humble!
