Take the Cornell Instagram Challenge...
Now it’s your turn to be an armchair voyager. Inspired by Cornell and in
association with BBC Arts’ Get Creative intiative, we’re inviting you
to create an Instagram shadow box to reflect a place that means
something to you. Here’s what to do…
An Instagram shadow box inspired by a trip to Japan, as part of our #CornellChallenge.
How to take part:
A Get Creative challenge in association with BBC Arts
Like Cornell, the key is to capture and explore the feel of the journey or place by assembling items – only you’ll be capturing them in Instagram’s square photo format. Here’s an example of one representing a recent trip to Japan.
You could represent a past trip, or like Cornell, your box might be an imagined depiction of a place you’ve never been. You can assemble anything you like to represent the place; perhaps small souvenirs, tickets stubs, postcards, notes, imagery from magazines. To see more examples, including Instagram shadow boxes from Royal Academicians, search #CornellChallenge on Instagram. The curator of our exhibition, Sarah Lea, will choose a selection of her favourites to appear on the the BBC Arts Get Creative website, as well as our website and social media.
Good luck, and get packing!
