Dada

As the first post on the blog (wooo), I'll just mention what ideas we had.

First, was the idea of destructing photos of ourselves, taking them about destroying sections and whole pieces and then putting them back together. To create one image that we had all worked on, that we can show in a gallery space.

Working from this idea, I thought it was similar to what the Dadaists were doing in the early 20th century. They rebelled against art and made what was known as anti-art. This also links with the work of Jake and Dinos Chapman, in terms of the idea I was thinking of.

When you fold a piece of paper; write like a noun, a verb, an adjective so that it creates a sentence that is nonsense.

Its a whimsical idea and I think we can all relate to that....
