Spring 2020 – Image/Object/Language
Image/Object/Language
Zachary Sumner Schomp
10 sessions >> Wednesdays, January 29 - April 1
6:00-9:00PM, 16A, $480
Utilizing new photographs, found/family images, objects, ephemera and text, students will create a cohesive body of work beyond a singular medium. In this course we will explore the relationship of images and objects, and learn how the different mediums influence one another. The goal of this class is to wrestle with an idea, allowing the language of the concept to be guided by experimentation. Students are expected to make pictures and objects, as well as dig and excavate their archive, moving between maker and archivist. The class will also investigate ways artists have combined mediums to influence what they are trying to convey.
