My final piece to conclude my investigation on how emotions
are visually conveyed through context and worlds. The context of my
illustration is to visually tell the audience how complex the human brain is,
particularly emotions, and how it can overwhelm the mental state of the individual.
The tangling pipes represents the complexity of emotions and the little
characters clinging on the pipes represents the moods and various attitudes
each emotion can bring out. The head falling apart symbolises the overwhelming thoughts
bursting out from our physical shell, representing the uncontrollable that we
cannot contain when we experience each emotion.
Final piece to
conclude my investigation
My investigation in exploring how context and worlds conveys
particular emotions has taught me that the importance of object placement,
composition and colours are critical, although these are only useful to convey
the emotions of sadness, loneliness or anxiety. To convey other emotions such
as anger or depression, it is usually relied on various subject matters (characters,
objects or ambiguous visuals) as metaphors, connotations or symbolism, to
exaggerate or to indirectly convey the emotion within the visual outcome.
