Packaging Tape People
Your Mission:
In the style of Mark Jenkins we are going to create Life Size Figures with Packaging Tape.
This will be a group project: You will choose a partner, and then find another set of partners. Once you have your team, each group of two will be responsible for one figure.
In your Group of Four you will have the choice to join another group of four to make a larger installation. (I.E. Four Figures interacting) You may cloth your figures like Mark Jenkins to really freak people out on campus or at the Spring Art Show.
To make the figures you will wrap shrink wrap around your partner and then firm it up with clear packaging tape. DO NOT WRAP YOUR HEADS! Use the skulls in the classroom. Then you will CAREFULLY cut of the tape in strategic points to get it off your partner. After that you will piece your figure back together with the packaging tape. In your group you will decide the setting and what your figures interaction will be. You will arrange your installation and photograph it somewhere on campus. As always you will post it on your Webpage with the proper captions and submit your URL through the Google Classroom. Each Member in the group is responsible for posting the installation to their webpages. |
