Look for images that your mind would associate with that individual emotion. Cut the images out of the magazine or download the images from the web. Create a collage. Now, describe why these images were chosen. Explain each image you’ve included and why you chose what you chose. Angry, Sad, Joyous, Uninspired, Scared...


This collage represents the emotion of "sadness". The top image is of a family photo album that was ruined in a house fire, an occurrence that would undoubtedly cause much sadness for anyone involved. The word "tragedy" is self-explanatory (the scanned image doesn't do this piece justice since "tragedy" is in neon-orange). The people look despondent, however, there is always hope which is represented by the light at the top of the word tragedy.
