Madison Giordano:

I am unsure of what I am going to place my pictures on yet but I believe they will just be pictures with no words. I am hoping to find an artifact to place these pictures on. There will be multiple pictures together on whatever I find. My grandmother has Alzheimer's disease. She has lost all memory of short term memory and is now spreading to long term, where she is forgetting names and memories. When she looks at pictures she can remember them a little better. I am going to get pictures of her when she was younger and me when I was younger and put them all on something she loves and is very "her" before the disease. All of these pictures bring back memories for my Grandmother, they will be collaged together on one of her artifacts. All kinds due to multiple pictures, probably they will mostly be available because they are taken outside or artificial because they are taken inside. COllage or montage probably the most, just because I am somehow going to mix a bunch of pictures together. This is a very touchy topic that is near and dear to my heart. I want to tell her story, over the years and maybe just to bring back a few memories for me and her as well. I'm hoping the color is antique looking and the shape is interesting to look at.
 * 1) How will you create a complex composition? Will you use multiple images collaged or montaged into one or will you do a series of images 3-5 that are printed and displayed together?
 * 1) What will the subject of your images be? How will you develop your concept? What is your concept?
 * 1) How will you incorporate collage, montage, found objects or found photography?
 * 1) What type of lighting will you work in?
 * 1) Are there other art processes you will need to use to create your piece? collage, montage, sculpture, fabric, recycled materials?
 * 1) Why will you create the images you've planned?
 * 1) What principles of art do you hope to use and focus on?
