Students will deconstruct shapes by breaking a large square or circle into smaller parts, creating a new abstract design that demonstrates symmetry. The materials used include construction paper and tools like scissors and paste to assemble their designs. The objective is to explore concepts of area, shape, and various types of symmetry in their artwork.
Deconstruct reconstruct shape
- 1. Deconstruct/Reconstruct Shape- Criteria & Objectives • Students will take a large square or circle, break that up into shapes and rearrange the parts as a new unified shape. • Students will use construction paper, graphite, scissors or exacto knives, paste, and a sheet of 12 x 18 in. paper. 1. Students will cut out three 4 in. squares or 4.5 in. circles. 2. Students must make an abstract design within the confines of their square/circle. 3. Students will cut out their design from two of their squares/circles and paste them down in a symmetrical and altered fashion. • The objective of this assignment is to create something from nothing, explore the potential of area, shape, and symmetry.
