When deciding a mood for this whole year, I went with Hopeful, gloomy, darkness, fearful, independence, questioning, loneness, fatigue, and sadness. The images I shot I feel visually describe the given emotions over the last year.
Hopeful: The emotion that I seemed to have the least of during this year, but still felt hopeful about next school year.
Gloomy: Everyday seemed to be gloomy and filled with neutral days that seemed quite slow and gloomy
Darkness: All of the negative news on tv this past year seemed to be depressing and made me see the world in the darkness
Fearful: I was and still am fearful about what the future will look like with so many uncertainties, and worried about never living normally anytime soon.
Independence: I felt that I learned how to be more independent and less dependent on others.
Questioning: I was questioning the current situation, trying to determine the constitutionally of the governor's executive orders, and if they would ever be overturned by the courts or the state congress.
Loneness: I felt that I was isolated from people and missed out on opportunities for socialating with school operating the way it has.
Fatigue: I am tired most days, and am tired of zooming every Monday and Tuesday afternoon.
Sadness: It seems harder to socialize when everyone is wearing a mask, hiding their facial expressions and emotions, leaving me feeling disconnected and sad.
Personal Reflection:
For most of this assignment, I was independent in capturing most of the photos for this collage. It was more difficult for me to come up with unique emotions to describe the visuals. I mostly enjoyed working on this assignment in deciding good capturing environments.
