This week you will be not so much drawing or painting as making. As we discussed in class, you are to make a surrealistic object that undermines or subverts itself. Daniel's cactus chair is a great example, or the soccer cleats with the studs inside the shoe instead of outside, or Meret Oppenheim's furry tea service (http://www.moma.org/learn/moma_learning/meret-oppenheim-object-paris-1936).
Whatever you choose, try to make a thing in an interesting or poetic way, instead of the easiest way. If you find that you can't actually make your idea (but it is possible to make), make a painting of it to show us your idea. Here's an example: The Dufala Bros. "Hair Burger."
