Activity 10 - Deconstructing and Reinterpreting

I'm over half way now with this lot of activities I need to achieve before I begin my first assignment, which I hope to start on by the end of this week.  This activity had me tearing up one of my artworks (I photocopied a drawing because I didn't want to destroy any of my originals), as part of the deconstruction, in order to reinterpret.  I have to admit, once I started on this activity, it was all free form from here.

When I undertook my sight unseen activity, I drew the first image intuitively, and this was the one I used to deconstruct, by tearing it into five pieces and using three of the best for the next image.

Using charcoal, as in the previous drawing, I glued the three best pieces onto a new sheet of paper and set about redrawing the image, thereby creating a new image.  I forgot to take photos of the pieces I ripped up but if you look closely at this image, you can see where it's been stitched up.  As you can also see, more has been added to this image, including mountains, more trees, some flowers, a sun, clouds and a pair of birds.
