PRINCIPLE – Illusion of Motion: Kinesthetic Empathy
Describing FORM: What is the specific communicative strategy? Where is it found?
Kinesthetic empathy is an unconscious reaction we feel in our body; we feel as well as see the action
Discussion CONTENT: What does it communicate?
The way the objects are placed and the positioning of the girls hair gives us a feeling of motion. It looks lively and like she is swaying her hair in the wind.
Even though it is a picture, we can both see and feel her movement.
