Archetype Collages

These 9-12 grade students were applying compositional considerations and techniques learned the week before, in the context of a new technique: collage.

Collage allows an artist to create original, dynamic images without having to depend on drawing skills.

The assignment was to examine archetypes (or ideas/patterns universal to the human experience) and symbols used to illustrate them,

then to make a collage based on that archetype.

8" x 12", papers on tagboard.
