Timeless Passion

For my reproduction piece I will be creating an assemblage piece with all of my found/collected items. Assemblage art is an artful process in which a three-dimensional artistic composition is made from putting together found objects. the word origins back to the 1950s when Jean Dubuffet created a series of butterfly collage pieces in which he called assemblages d'empreintes. Other artist such as Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso had also worked with found objects many years prior. The essence of my piece will inhibit the old feeling of valuable items that once belonged to an important person. All of my found objects will be in same shape or form vintage and quite old. I want to capture the feeling of the passage of time while at the same time project the beauty in old fashion crafted material. The piece will be a viually interactive piece and will have many photos pasted on it ( which are going to be real photos from a recently deceseed person) to give the feeling of an era and memory. My piece will be a relatively good size and most likely a hanging piece.

as far as materials go:
all of my materials will be from my parents home and are undecided as of now. To get an idea of what everything will be stores in, think of a shadow box or somesort of framing piece that will allow the viewer to take a peek inside.
