__Self Perception
(20 - 30 pts.)
How do we know ourselves? Is it what we see in the mirror? Our own reality is hard to find. Can we seek the truth about ourselves?
For years artists have explored this concept through the self-portrait. There is a long tradition of looking in the mirror to gain insight into our deeper self, beyond our persona, beyond how others define us.
You can view yourself through metaphor that can often seem more real than any self-reflection.
Create a work 12 x 16 or larger using any two or more media.
You will need to create a sketch before you can start on the final project. Make sure you receive approval before continuing. |
