Psychescapes

The Psychescapes project is a visual exploration of emotions, both universal and individualized, through motifs, symbols, and scenarios. Instead of relying on verbal expression, these images serve as illustrations – abstract representations that unveil the essence of mood. They offer a departure from traditional narratives; emotions are not conveyed through a storyline but through pictograms.

For instance, a collection of sticks and flotsam might evoke a sense of foreboding, conveying the feeling of being enclosed or trapped with no escape. On the other hand, flowing stripes intertwining seamlessly could symbolize boundless creativity and energy, yet when encased within a rope fence, they suggest a constraint on that freedom, a stifling containment.

Each piece invites viewers to explore the depth of their own emotions, offering a visual language to articulate the complexities of the human psyche.
