Create a self-portrait that conceptually expresses your unique and personal interests, attributes, and qualities as an individual. Utilize the tools and techniques you have leamed to create an 8"10" Dada-inspired digital collage. This will be accomplished by following the steps of the thinking, looking, and doing the creative process. Think about a contemporary theme (social, environmental, political, etc.) that you feel strongly about using as your subject matter and explore it through the Dadaist lens of absurdity. This self-portrait goes beyond a standard representational portrait into the realm of highly conceptual visual expression, not just a realistic representation of your physical self but an abstract expression. Look for images and materials to digitally "cut and paste" together in a composition that embodies the Dada movement and mimics the look of cut paper. With the advantage of going digital, I will allow blending and translucency in your collage..
