Working in groups is challenging, and it's important to maintain your own vision -- so this is your individual assignment for Lab. Everyone will receive a sketchbook in Newark this Saturday, March 3 (unless you have let us know that you cannot attend that session, in which case, you will receive your sketchbook on Thursday, March 8). The sketchbook is specifically for this class, and will be reviewed/critiqued at the end of the course. Images, writing, etc. from the sketchbooks may be included in the exhibition catalog.
Everyone needs to keep the same sketchbook. No exceptions. Please reimburse Norene for the sketchbooks ($3) next week.
Sketchbooks will be collected at the end of class, graded and worth 20% of your final grade. If you want your sketchbook back, you can get it from us once grades are submitted.
Criteria:
- Through a series of no less than 2 entries per week, document your experience in, and create a portrait of Identity Blueprint.
- Sketchbook entries are not limited to drawings. Be creative. This is your personal and individual way to document the program and your experience with it.
- Please use any medium you feel comfortable with and are inspired to use (that can be incorporated into a sketchbook): drawings, painting, photography, collage, annotated graphic design elements, recorded interviews, writing (journal/narrative), or any combination of the aforementioned and/or medium not listed.
Please consider the following as you document:
- What is Identity Blueprint?
- What does it mean to you personally, to the community of Newark, to the art world to society as a whole?
- What is the program's significance--over time?
- What is your role in this program--over time?
- Who are the girls in the program? Do they change over the course of the 8 week program?
- Does your relationship to the program, to Newark and to the girls change over the 8 weeks?
