Project 2

Project 2: Unexpected

For your second project, create a series of pieces that each have something unexpected or surprising in your use of the materials. Create 3 pieces.

Examples: Concrete is thought of as heavy- make a light concrete piece. Rubber is flexible, use it for something that needs rigidity like a spoon. Consider using multiple materials to achieve your goals. Foam is considered squishy and light- make it rigid and/or heavy.

Consider incorporating metal or other materials. Think about structure and visual appearance: How can you use those to create your surprise.

The unexpected quality must relate to the material but it can also relate to the subject matter of the piece. Think about a knife made of rubber or a weight made of foam, etc.

You must choose 3 different materials from the list below:

Foam

Rubber (polyurethane or silicone)

Concrete

Chalk

Paper

Plastic/Resin

Ideas/Designs: Due March 26
