Pimp Your Jeans
Pimp Your Jeans
Instituto Thomas Jefferson has asked my class to participate in their annual design/fashion show. They parade their customized blue-jean creations down a runway before an audience and jury. We will have our own pre-juried exhibit at HTHI to decide what 3 designs will travel to Mexico City as representative of the USA and HTHI.
Essential question:
Can you turn jeans into a culturally, artistically and academically significant artwork?
Pros:
· ITJ will pay for me to travel to Mexico to participate as a judge.
· They would like 3 students to accompany me and exhibit their designs on the runway. Con: they are not offering to pay
Project Plan:
By any method you choose, express a theme or concept using blue-jeans as your canvas.
Methods - sewing, painting, dyeing, riveting, constructing, deconstructing, sculpting, printing, etching, photographing, etc.)
