Juxtapose 

A word meaning to place objects next to one another to create contrast. It has widely been used in the art world, and, unfortunately, has been picked up by art students. This means that if there is any contrast in any given student piece, you are bound to hear this word when critique time comes around.
Student A: The artist is creating a vivid dialogue through the use of the miniscule color-blocked area of the painting juxtaposes the gargantuan, overpowering, almost didactic imagery encompassing it.

Student B: You're just trying to use big words at this point, aren't you?
