Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space.
Installation art is an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space.
Found object is a term borrowed from the French objet trouvé, describing art created from undisguised, but often modified, objects or products that are not normally considered materials from which art is made, often because they already have a non-art function.
Pablo Picasso first publicly utilized the idea when he pasted a printed image of chair caning onto his painting titled Still Life with Chair Caning (1912).
Marcel Duchamp is thought to have perfected the concept several years later when he made a series of ready-mades, consisting of completely unaltered everyday objects selected by Duchamp and designated as art.

Piece
Title : Wood You Rather
Synopsis: We took the wood in its rawest, purest form
and combined it with paper and wood cabinets: Two refined versions of
the original form. The raw wood symbolize us in our current state and
the refined wood cabinets represents us after our scholastic journey.
The rocks represent the people that keep us grounded and support us on
our journey. The flowers represent the growth of our journey and the
beauty that is to come. We’re all seniors and thought this represented
our journey at Miami.
Assessment: What did you take away from this? What was
going through your mind as you were putting the pieces together? Could
you relate to the piece in any way? How many found objects and/or ready-mades were you able to put together in your installation.
