On rainy days we'd go swimming out..
The title of my collage is called "Unexpected Tragedy."
Technique used - Collage.
My collage was made on a 9 by 12 black construction paper, glue, scissors, and a collection of black and white 911 photographs. A collage is an artistic composition made of various materials (as paper, cloth, or wood) glued on a surface.
- Expressive art work.
I choose to do my collage strictly black and white collage to express how 911 was not a postive event and many people have bad memories of the day. What I intended to do was just put a whole bunch of pictures of what happened in 911 and some of the reactions of 911 all mounted on one another in collage form so it would impact the person looking at my collage, since for many americans it was such an impacting day. I placed lots of pictures of the buildings being attacked and people crying for that purpose. I think when people look at my collage it stricks them as impacting and it memorializes the life changing negative event in the U.S so I believe it came out the way I enteded it to be and I am satisfisfied with it.
