Emotions can be the reason why an art piece is created but they can also be the
consequence of experience with an art piece. The theoretical part focuses on how people
experience emotions and what can trigger them, and on visual perception and emotional
relationship with what is seen. It also deals with how emotions can be transferred into
physical form and how can they be expressed through movement. The practical part is
focused on the visualisation of the following emotions: intimacy, admiration and
melancholy. All these emotions are reflected in the design of clothing, and a
corresponding textile panel is added to each piece of clothing. The complete project is
presented in a performance where the author and three other performers finish the
process of exploration and thus leave it to others for interpretation.
