"Under, Over, Inside Outside" Art theme HELP????

Question

Im doing art GCSE and this year's theme is "Under, Over, Inside, Outside".

I need to make a visual brainstorm of the theme, and need some help/ideas or the inital interpretation of the theme.

Please give me some ideas that is related to the theme, thanks!

Answer 1

How about a collage of various pictures from magazines that would describe each of these words -

Maybe use a four panel frame (like looking out or in a window - each word is in it's own panel - that would enhance the inside outside idea - and of course continue with the over - pictures on top - and the under pictures below.  4 panel window frame would be a perfect media subject.

I would also create the word - spelled out from different letters of font from magazines also

sounds like a neat project - I'd love to see the classes' finished projects

Good luck - if you are an art student - you obviously have the ability to create something unique and artistic good luck.

Answer 2

You can explore spatial dimensions and make a sculptural/mobile in which something within something when moved cannot be distinctively recognized whether it is inside or outside, over or under.  As these are just four restraints we have in the time space dimensions we exist in.  Then you can ponder: at what state of existence can we eliminate these limitations of our time space dimensions?  Is it only by escaping these restraints that we achieve real freedom? What is this real state of freedom?  Are there more than four times space dimensions in this universe?  What are they?  Where are they?
