Assemblage Illustration

I'm a huge fan of the illustrator and art educator Hanoch Piven. I've been wanting to teach a lesson based on his found object assemblages for quite a long time. This week I finally got around to it and the results were fantastic

I started the lesson by introducing the student's to Piven's work through this short video...

The students then worked in coloured paper, lego blocks and metal wire to produce human portraits, animal portraits and landscapes. Here's an assortment of student work!
