Question 3

Think of a personal experience which is normal or ritualistic in your life. Take this experience and turn it into a grotesque scene by adding the Elements of the Grotesque.

You can make your scene as funny, as scary, as beautiful, as ugly, or as weird as you want. It can be SURREAL, ABSTRACT OR REALISTIC. It can be LANDSCAPE, STILL LIFE, or PORTRAITURE.

USE YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCES AND IMAGINATION TO COMPOSE THE ARTWORK. KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU MUST USE AT LEAST ONE OF THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF THE GROTESQUE, BUT FEEL FREE TO USE MORE.
