This was project inspired by a mix of relief sculpture and assemblage.
We wanted cost to be low and more importantly, to make use of materials the school has in stock, hence over six sessions, eight students worked on these two frames.
Session 1: As always, sketches and ideas from students
Session 2: Transferring ideas onto board (that came with the Ikea Frame). Start gluing objects, in this case, we used lots of plastic drink bottles the school had left over from a previous project.
* Tip* tape a border to create a marker so no object is glue, otherwise fitting on the frame may end up being challenging.
Session 3 & 4: Check most items are securing glued. Paper marche a layer or two of Kitchen Towel (or Tissue Paper). This create a nice surface for acrylic to sit. At the end of session 4 or before you are ready to add colours, create an outline (if necessary) and let it dry over night at least.
Session 5 & 6: As always, I strongly encouraged the background of any large project or canvas to be filled first. Especially like us, we have limited time, filling the background first reduce the need for major touch-up.
