At the moment my favourite medium to use is acrylic paint. I have been keen to try different media to recreate art, I want to broaden my range so that I have a better understanding of why artists have their favourite materials they like to use. I began to look at the Dada movement to see if I was able to create a collage. After looking at many artworks, I felt most inspired by Kurt schwitters. I like the way his main focus was not on ww1, and how he could take everyday materials such as bus tickets, newspapers and fabric and use them to create a work of art. At first I thought, this would be quite simple and was probably thrown together with not much thought. It wasn't until 20 minutes into my Dada art, that I realised there was alot more thought process. I had to think about position and composition as well as, use of colours and tones. I was also made aware of texture, and had to decide how best to add fabric. I really enjoyed making a collage, the longer I spent on it, the more easier it became and the more inspired I felt. This is what I came up with, I call it zero fare.
