A study of emotion, meant to demonstrate the physical sensation of 13 universal human emotions. The drawings were completed in 2021 for a client, and are based off of findings from a recent study on how people feel and describe the physical sensation of particular emotions within their bodies. The warm and cool tones used within these drawings correspond to the sensations of either warmth or cold, heavy or light, as they were felt and described by the participants within the study, corresponding to the particular emotion they were experiencing. 

From top left to bottom right: depression, sadness, envy, anger, surprise, contempt, anxiety, pride, joy, disgust, fear, shame, love.

If you are interested, you can look at the study the drawings are based off of, published in 2020 within the American Psychology Association Journal here.
