Acerca de esta clase
How much do you know about the surrealist movement? Have you heard of startling juxtapositions or automatic drawings? Under the influence of French leader Andre Breton, surrealists began creating with less focus on control and without employing their rational minds. They started concentrating more on unusual behavior, dreams, the psyche or the subconscious. These themes deeply resonate with me and I am eager to convey them to you.
What you will find in this class:
- I will begin by giving you an overview on the surrealist movement, including artists that took part in this movement.
- Then, through the analysis of an artwork by Max Ernst, we will break down the characteristics of a surrealist piece of art.
- Afterwards you will complete four exercises, where you will create work that will include those characteristics.
- Finally, you will create a final project, where you will include all of the characteristics you’ve previously learned.
This class is for anybody who wants to develop their creativity in a way that involves unusual ways of thinking. You don’t need particular previous skills to follow the class or any expensive material. What you do need is a collection of photos and a diary where you can record your dreams or any situations that have impacted you. You will also need basic materials such as a pen, glue and scissors.
If you want to add a new crenel to your creative set, dive into the mysterious world of surrealism, or learn new references and techniques related to this movement, this class is for you.
You will use collages and drawing techniques to create original works that arise from your dreams, your subconscious or your feelings.
Proyecto de clase práctica
What is your life composed of? Do you think we could represent it using new or old containers in which you place all the parts of your life? Like your projects, your relationships or anything that is related to your inner world. Here, utilising a stunning collage mixed with drawings, I will ask you to represent your inner house with all the surrealist characteristics that you’llhave learned during the previous exercises.
Every exercise, including the class project, is built using this structure:
- I will begin by introducing the exercise with a reference and/or example of what is being asked in the exercise.
- Secondly, I will do a demonstration of the exercise, where I will include useful advice that you will need to understand it and improve yourself.
- Thirdly, I will sum up the prompt and the advice given on a clear page and ask you to reflect on your work with a question.
Whether it is a reflection on your work, what you have created during the four exercises, or the final project about the inner house, please share it. There is a “Discussion” and a “Project and Resources” tab inside the class on the Skillshare website. I will also share some photos I used to create demonstrations of the exercises.
