Project #7 – Series/Narrative based on One Image/One Idea Assignment

Digital Journal 7:

Come up with 3 potential artist statements.  Don't over think these.  This is an exercise to prepare you for your final artist statement for your portfolio (if you're in AP for the rest of the year).  Use whatever ideation process works best for you to generate ideas.  (For me, I listen to music to get inspired, or meditate and focus on the things I'm grateful for.)
For each Artist Statement, write a brief description of what we might see in your 12 photographic works.

These 3 artist statements are due by the end of class on Thursday, November 21st.
Naming Convention: _dj7

Project:

Your series should explore one idea/artist statement more in depth than in the 10 Photos a Day for a Week project.

You will have 1 Month to shoot and edit at least 12 Photographs that reflect ONE of your personal artist statements.

Friday, January 16th:  Submit ALL 12 works of art for this assignment on an 8" x 11"document with 3 Columns and 4 Rows in Photoshop with the ONE IDEA (your Artist Statement) titled at the top of this document, with your artist statement underneath, followed by your 12 images and the defense of your artist statement at the bottom of this document.
