Images

[qos]

It's amazing how much comfort it gave me to make the collages last night -- the one I posted and the one I made for myself. I love words so much, but sometimes I need to go let go of them and go straight to the emotion of images. Shaping them, placing them, balancing them was also a different kind of mental/creative engagement for me. It wasn't so much with the one I posted here, because the LJ formatting limited what I could do, but I spent at least an hour on a collage I did in PowerPoint, balancing each piece.

The images were so rich. Besides being deeply moved by the content, I was impressed with the different skills it took to have and to find such images, and the rhythms you chose in arranging them. And PowerPoint, that's a neat idea.

It's so important to have nonverbal ways of interacting with emotions.
