This concept incorporates a balance of physical and digital art. Highlighting moments of heartbreak, each stage portrays an emotion like no other. One where the world can adopt a connection, as experiences link the art and the audience together.
I | Pain
The framework displays a painful first stage of isolation and lonely sorrow in a bathtub, a place of privacy and seclusion.
II | Betrayal
Displaying a sense of severity and brutality, this shot holds a bold contrast in the setting compared to the first stage’s composition.
III | Resentment
The layout and tones in stage three created a balanced composition of pain and betrayal. With her back shunned away from the bold red wall, her hand position frames an entrancing composition line.
IV | Acceptance
The hand placement aligns with the shifted framework encouraging the viewer to adopt a presence of peace as if we are being comforted with her.
