Year 9 HW: Start putting together your assemblage mask using found and discarded objects. This is an example piece by local Artist Darwin Guevarra for inspiration......remember you can use anything, old toys, shoes, keys, sunglasses, clothing, plastic containers.....just make sure you ask permission and don't use anything valuable!

Year 10 HOMEWORK: Document your experiments for A02 on a minimum of two presentation sheets. Annotate these in detail, explaining what worked well, even better if, your links to artists + the theme. You will need to include photographs of large work as well as your sections of the wall mural. These presentation sheets will be assessed and count towards your final grade.
