Art 112 2D Design

T/TH 7:40-10:30

Project # 5: Pattern

Objectives

To understand and apply the principles of "patterning" as applied to two-dimensional art. To introduce the concepts of "design process," "module," and "pattern." To explore the range of part-to-whole relationships that can result from the considered design of modules and their application to different patterning schemes. To indicate the universal aspects of patterning as found in cultures throughout the world.

Vocabulary

Design process, module, pattern, edge, alignment (unified direction), rotation, axis, symmetry, tangency, gestalt, transition

Materia1s

2 sheets 8 by10 fabric, ranges of needles and thread, thimble scissors

Assignments:

3) Using a step by step design process, create a module that can be used to create patterns:a symbol patterns of cycles. as related to nature, technology science, math. Once design completed sew the pattern into a 8 by10 sheet of fabric using various thread sizes, colors etc.
