In this unit you will be exploring the range of ways artists use text in their artwork.
Text is one of the strongest visual elements because it can tell the viewer exactly what you want them to see or think, but, if used correctly, it can also make the viewer question (him/herself, the artwork, a concept, the world) in new ways. Carefully choose how to use your text for this assignment.
You must create at least 1 text art piece that has a meaning and a concept. There must be some digital element in your final piece but the medium/software is up to you. Don't waste your class time, you can easily create 2+ pieces in this amount of time if you are focused and engaged in your work. You may connect this to your concentration theme if you would like but you will most likely be using this in your breadth section.
