Composition in art uses color, images, and text arranged in a unique way to convey an idea or theme. The document discusses two artists, Barry McGee and Margaret Kilgallen, who create interesting compositions through their use of these elements. Their compositions can be awkward or out of the ordinary, using canvases, drawings, imagery from different sources, text, and sculptures to extend into 3D space and send a message.
