more like... emotional mess

My emotional map/compass...

In progress:



Now finished:


And, yes, she moves...


I wanted to visually illustrate the ways in which emotions are fluid, not bound by our words for them, and influence one another. In creating this map, it was important to me that some parts be able to move and overlap and change the landscape. I included a few poems/poetic fragments throughout the map because I often find it difficult to find one word to explain the way I feel. Also... sometimes it is hard to tell which way is up.

Alex, I really like your concept for your emotional map. It's totally on with the fluidity of emotions and I love how you were able to caputre this essence by making the pieces of your project move in whatever way was feasable. Awesome idea!
