Although I have several other nuggets of my student work I would like to share, this will be the last installment of Old School for a little while. Once again, this piece is an assignment for the Intro Illustration class I was in. Here, we had to take Edvard Munch's famous psychological work, The Scream, (pictured on the left) and apply one specific phobia, preferably one we had ourself.
The illustration was done on scratchboard then Xerox copied onto plastic film. The film was later placed over a brightly colored, painted background. The film was not archival and over time has muted the colors with its deterioration.
I loved this assignment then and I still love it now. It utilized appropriation (before I knew what it was), multi-processes and techniques, and had an addition of self-portrait. Talk about getting involved in one's own work.
Have no fear... art school is here!!!
