Ist Secondary Assignment

For our first secondary assignment we had to take unconvential materials from the dollar store (like diaper bags, rubberbands, plastic gloves, balloons, etc.) and create a collaborated art installation. I enjoyed working on this group project because of the end result. Once we had the theme, everyone started working with the materials handed to them, so when each piece came together as a whole, the result was very interesting. I really liked the theme (under the sea) and how every material we had worked so well with this theme. It seemed like every material was made to work as a sea creature or something in the ocean (like the diaper bags were made to be jellyfish or the coffee filters were made to be clams). I had never done a project like this before, so it was a good experience (although I have learned that I think I like working alone better than collaborating). I really liked working with the materials we worked with because I think it helped strengthen our creativity. I am now inspired to work with similar materials!
