Emotions

My Frustration is very similar to my anger. I flipped the boxes and wanted this time to show the sharp corners cutting into the negative space. The angle of the boxes that are pointing all tips to one corner. My frustration then after whirling would become Anger which you will see below.


This is supposed to be Fear. The stair-like attempt is supposed to show exploration into the unknown. The negative space is very slight on 3 corners only, to show the bottom is black and dark. I also wanted to hide the outside of the boxes so that the uniformity was gone, because uniformity is not scary.



This is Excitement. I wanted to give the illusion that the boxes have jumped out of the roof just a bit. They are all following each other to the top! So engulfed in the movement that they have collided. The negative space even though i can only use white is supposed to be a place for the movement to take place continuously.

Oh, Joy! Lots of negative space so not to frustrate the boxes in the middle with a star burst effect. The bigger box extending out into littler boxes make me see that the joy is exploding quietly.

This is Contentment. All the boxes in a row, laying on the bottom of the space. The negative space makes it look like the boxes are floating. The family appearance of maybe a parent box and two children boxes, not moving but suspended in pure contentment.

This is Anger. It looks kinda like a face. However the slant of the top boxes make it appear to be frowning. The the absolute squareness of the larger bottom box i think gives the effect of large emptiness. The negative space around the outside four corners gives an illusion of arrows of escape to the outside.
