Please help! I need ideas for an art project! 10 pts.!!!?

Question

Ok, so, I have to do this art project for college, and it can be anything. I can use any materials. It should mean something though, like there's supposed to be a purpose in the project. I don't care what the purpose would be, I just need some ideas! Any ideas!! What would you do, for example?

Answer 1

Do something you really believe in and express it in an art form (painting, modeling clay, drawing, etc.) that you enjoy doing. It's a way I would approach it. Good Luck :)

Answer 2

I would make a book, only I would make it out of cigar boxes (you can get them at tobacco stores for cheap). I would make the lid of each a page that says something important about life as I see it and then when you lift it objects relating to or representing that are in the box (you'd need to glue them down or whatever).  then I would bind them all together with a really cool fabric or leather cover (here's one simple way to accomplish that):

If you sort of  like the book idea but not quite, here's a link to some pretty cool personal books that might trip your trigger.

A book is always purposeful and can contain the world or any facet of it. You could say it is your legacy.

Or you could take a bunch of old concert T-shirts and make a quilt out of them.

Or you could build a scale model of the Sydney opera house that functions as a bird feeder.

Or you could find a cool old guitar or something and make it yours with whatever tickles your fancy. I mean, just paint the c**p out of it.

Spectacles? You could customize some spectacles.

Or how about a really kicka$$ bicycle? You could have some fun with that. Or a skateboard even.

OK, OK, you asked!!!!

It's a cool project,man! Have fun with it!
