Assignment

Diorama assignment due February 28th: Make a diorama… in a shoebox or cigar box, whatever. You pick the topic—something of interest to you. (the limit: you have to be able to bring it to class, and put it on display). Prepare to talk about your display—like a curator—for 3 minutes. (What is it about? What is the story? What do you want people to notice? What’s the significance of what you’ve included, what have you left out?). Does not have to be a real or nature scene. Any subject matter, use your imagination as you see fit. Individual Project.           Some background on dioramas:
