Junk Shadow Art

Today we started a new discipline in Art called Junk Shadow Art. This means to create a sculpture out of junk or things that you find lying around the house and making a sculture of it, but concentrating also on the shadow it creates. This shadow can look completely different to the sculpture . Our teacher showed us some images by various differnt artists like Marcel Duchamp who brought a mens urinal into a gallery and called it art, to other artists like Robert Raushenburg and two artists called Tim Nobel and Sue Webster . These artists created amazing shadow scultures out of junk. They are really realistic and inspiring.

We then started our own sculptures working in two groups and using a projector to shine a light for the shadow.
