Fantasy vs. Reality
(Surrealism Series)

Part 3

You will be creating a series of 2 works, two-dimensional and virtual space (AR). These works must successfully combine fantasy and reality to create a surreal final image with a specific SDGs in mind. This means that your works must successful reflect an understanding of surrealism and communicate your intended message. You will write an artist statement explaining the intended message to your audience. These works must relate to one another to be a cohesive set. Materials and style are your choice, but should be a representation of your skills. You will be assessed on your demonstration of technique, use of details, creativity, and craftsmanship.
