MULTIPLE
Project Prompt
Multiples in fine art have, by the very nature of repetition, the power to exaggerate and suggest consumption, oppression, even bliss or the sublime. Unlike an edition of multiple prints or objects for the purpose of resale, the multiple in fine art can also create a place for social engagement, using interactive elements that perform various duties. Whether you’re amassing, distributing or destroying multiples—this project asks you to consider how the use of multiplicity can inform the meaning of your work.
