For this project, we were pared up in groups in class and given different colors of paper to cut into shapes and put between different layers a of plexi glass to create a design. Alex and Caroline were in my group for this project. When we got our colors, I think we all were reminded of the 80′s, so we decided to do a lot of geometrical shapes that were incorporated in many designs of the 80′s.
From this project, I learned how layering can enhance a piece by creating more depth. I also learned that objects or shapes can be lost in different layers, and that too much layering can cause chaos, and be visually unappealing or appealing, depending on the artists intention of the piece.
I did learn a lot from this project about layering, and how it can affect the mood of a piece. I think I would have liked this assignment more if we had more time to work so that we could explore the many different possibilities of layering and its effects.
