Pens down — quick partner check!

📣 Show your partner your transformed object. Decide together: do the two images truly merge, or just sit side by side? If side by side, help them overlap one into the other.

I Do

I Do: Watch Me Make One ✂️

Eyes on me — I'll make a surreal eye in under two minutes. Watch the two moves, then watch the ORDER I work in: cut → overlap → trace → three short lines.
Step 0 of 2read each one aloud

1️⃣ JUXTAPOSE

Place two unrelated things together. Your brain links them and a new meaning appears. An eye next to a clock.

2️⃣ TRANSFORM

Let one object become part of the other so the join disappears. The clock IS the iris. Stronger and more surreal.

🎬 The order I work in:
✂️
1. CUT

an eye + 1–2 objects

🔀
2. OVERLAP

merge them — no gap

✏️
3. TRACE

scribble-back or window

✍️
4. 3 LINES

see · like · media

👁️ I SEE: a clock face where the iris should be.
💭 I LIKE: the clash of living + mechanical — it feels dreamlike. (say WHY)
🎨 MEDIA: soft pencil lid, fine-liner numbers.

a gap between two pictures is just two pictures. overlap and merge so they read as ONE new object.

We Do

We Do: Fuse the Eye 👁️‍🗨️

Juxtaposition makes meaning. Tap an object to fuse it with the eye — see the dreamlike idea it creates and a media idea for drawing it. Try all four.

Make: Quick Eye Experiments 🧪✂️

Warm up your scissors. No neatness, no writing yet — just play. Cut an eye, cut some objects, overlap them. Make as many quick surreal eyes as you can. There are no wrong answers.

🎯 How to play

1. Grab an eye — from the image bank or a magazine face.

2. Cut 1–2 objects — anything that catches your eye.

3. Overlap them onto the eye so one becomes part of it. Don't glue yet — just try it.

4. Like it? Keep it. Don't? Try another. Bin nothing.

💡 Stuck? Fuse the eye with…

Ask yourself: what does this clash make me feel or think?
⭐ Aim for 3 or more quick eyes. Then STAR your favourite — that one becomes the starting point for your best build next.
Speed beats neatness here. The best surreal ideas usually come from a combination that surprised even you.

Make: Your Best Surreal Eye 🏆👁️

Pick your starred experiment (or start fresh). Now make ONE strong eye properly: transform it, glue it, trace it, then add three short lines.

📋 Build your eye

1. Transform & glue: overlap your images so one becomes part of the eye — no gaps (a clock that IS the iris). Glue it down.

2. Trace: scribble-back (pencil on the back, lay it on your page, draw over it) OR tape it to a window and trace.

3. Three short lines beside it — use the starters →

🎯 Aim for

☐ One transformed eye (no gaps)
☐ Glued + traced neatly
☐ Three lines: see · like · media
☐ A reason ("because…") in your LIKE line

✍️ Sentence starters
👁️ "In my surreal eye I can see…"
💭 "I like … because…"
🎨 "I would use … for the …"
Transformed, not side-by-side: let one object grow OUT of the eye so the join disappears.
Exit

Exit: Gallery Walk 🖼️

Pens down. Lay your eyes out on the desk. Walk the room and really look at three eyes you didn't make. Then we lock in the big idea.

🗣️ Find one eye where the images truly merged (transform, not side-by-side). Tell its maker exactly what works.

Then find one you'd love to try yourself.

1) Turning an eye's iris into a clock is an example of…

2) A surreal collage needs two UNRELATED things because…
