Mixed-media is such a broad, all-encompassing genre that it is easy to become overwhelmed before you even start experimenting. Assemblages, collages, and sculptures are three common examples of art using different media. The class will look closely at the works by vanessa german currently on view at MAM, as well as discuss works by other artists working in mixed-media. Students will observe how artists use a vast range of objects and materials to express their ideas. We will discuss the best ways to adhere materials and create balance and unity in your structure. Even the most inexperienced beginner will develop a new appreciation for the art form and learn skills they can use to start making their own mixed-media art.
