Attend an Artwalk or art festival in your area. (This must be an outdoor event and different from a museum or gallery.) Find an artist to interview about their work, and use terms and concepts related to the elements of Design and/or Art to ask them questions about a specific piece.
- Ask them to describe the symbols and meanings behind a piece of their art.
- What are they trying to communicate about the human experience?
- What do they hope the viewer/audience will experience from their work?
- Think about the lessons to ask additional questions; identity, fantasy, truth, etc.
