A. I would definitively take on Cindy Sherman's work. I find her really interesting, compelling and definitively a great inspiring artist. I would love to make something such as the "bus riders" art show that she presented as I think it's really interesting and compelling.

Other idea that I had also was about doing a stop motion animation with collage photography such as this one. I think that this is possible and would be also really interesting to present on class.
