The Diptych
Main Entry: dip·tych
Pronunciation: 'dip-(")tik
Function: noun
Etymology: Late Latin diptycha, plural, from Greek, from
neuter plural of diptychos folded in two, from di- + ptychE fold
1 : a 2-leaved hinged tablet
folding together to protect writing on its waxed surfaces
2 : a picture or series of pictures
(as an altarpiece) painted or carved on two hinged tablets
3 : a work made up of two matching
parts
When two images are placed next to each other, they act to inform
the other, thereby creating a conversation. Multiple images tend
to strengthen weaker images or even create a completely different
meaning not evident within the individual images.
For this assignment you will create a minimum of 3 diptychs.
Select images that don't necessarily go together in obvious ways.
Think of Color as a subject (don't use black and whites).
Try to avoid "collections" of stuff.
