Repurposing an Object (Sketchbook assignment) – Black and White
Shape and form draw meaning from their context. An artist can reframe the meaning of
a form through recontextualizing the viewer’s perspective. By understanding how to set
context, an artist is better able to communicate new insights and ideas.
Choose an object that interests you (interesting shape, form, composition, social implication, historical value) and incorporate it into another unexpected and surprising
form.
Reference Artists: Rene Magritte, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, Christoph Niemann,
Andy Warhol, Marcel Duchamp.
Materials: Sketchbook, pens, pencil, marker
