Concentration for AP Studio Art

[madoubleguhee]

What are some good ideas surrounding the concentration portion of AP?

I keep switching between a few ideas, but I don't want to choose something that is either too complicated or too specific or too broad. So I'm trying to choose carefully.

Eyes
Fairytales and Myths
Changes

If you could comment on how you think those ideas above would work, or suggest something of your own would be really fantastic.

im also beginning work on my AP Studio Concentration/Breadth deal. the main piece of advice i've been given is not to "stretch" your idea too far to the point that youre pushing it. they want to see conceptual work and a solid idea that flows and develops across all of the pieces, and isnt so far-out and ridiculous that it loses meaning. my idea is related to time, so i thought to myself how can i represent the passing of time besides going completely literal and doing clocks in the frame? so ive come up with a few ideas, sequential pieces like 4 will represent the passing of days, 4 for the passing of months and seasons, and 4 for the passing of years and ages. beyond that im not 100% positive on what im doing, but hopefully some where in what i said lies some advice!

from your ideas in my mind when i think of eyes, what comes to mind is some interesting pieces that could be self-portraits as reflections in your eyes. beyond that im not sure though, it seems like you might limit yourself a bit there. maybe keep it general enough that you can build and expand on it, but not too general! my art teacher says a lot of the kids who score high on this start out simple and then over the course of the project distort the idea and the subject and even the media.
