Layered Archival-Paper Identity Collage
Make layered archival-paper identity collage without faces or text. Use the example for ideas, but choose your own subject, colors, arrangement, and details.
Study the example for possibilities, then close or cover it. Your work should make different choices.
What to do
- Make this: layered archival-paper identity collage without faces or text.
- Your core skill today: Test a small model and revise a weak connection or unclear arrangement.
- Make a quick sketch. Label the main shapes, colors, parts, and where they will go.
- Cut or tear the main shapes. Move them around without glue first. Overlap pieces, choose the best arrangement, then attach them.
- Stop halfway. Compare the work to the project goal—not to another student’s art. Fix, add, remove, move, or strengthen one part.
- Finish the important details. Make sure every loose part is attached and the main idea is easy to notice.
- Share the work. Explain one choice and one change you made. Photograph or display it, then clean the workspace.
My project: I am making layered archival-paper identity collage without faces or text. Draw or write your idea.
My choices: Circle or write the colors and materials you will use.
My plan: Draw the big shapes or main parts and show where they will go.
My first step: What will you make first?
Halfway check: What part needs to be added, moved, fixed, or made stronger?
Finish check: Are the main idea, important details, and connections complete?
Share: One choice I made was… One change I made was…
Skill evidence: Test a small model and revise a weak connection or unclear arrangement. Show your test and explain what you chose; speaking or dictation is welcome.
