Assignment #3

Watch the video about artist Lenka Clayton and follow the directions for the art assignment. http://www.theartassignment.com/assignments/lost-childhood-object

This can be completed with physical materials or interpreted in a digital drawing (https://sketch.io/sketchpad/en/). Please upload your image to the dropbox. Keep in mind that the purpose of the assignment is not the ability to make things with your hands but it is an exercise in the faultiness of memory and layers of translation.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Ask someone to describe an object they made or cherished as a child. Make a mental image of that object or write down for your reference.
2. Create the object (drawing, painting, sculpture, or web-based drawing)
3. Give the object back to the person
4. Document and upload as a .jpeg or .pdf file
