Do you... notice something different?
Freudian slip— an inadvertent mistake in speech or writing that is thought to reveal a person's unconscious motives, wishes, or attitudes.
Over the past year, after having enrolled in my first psychology class, I have come to develop a love and passion for the subject. Initially, I never would have believed myself to have an interest in psychology, but now I can see that it coincides with me as a person (okay okay hindsight bias, i know) This poster design is my own rendition and interpretation of analyzing the work of renowned artist, Spencer Finch. Having done research on his work and artist statement, I settled on a concept that brushes on his own purpose of design- making. Finch states that he attempts to record the invisible world. Immediately, I thought of freudian slips, which are slips of the unconscious mind. In Psychology, there is an example about how human consciousness is merely just the tip of an iceberg. I wanted to represent this duality between the subconscious and conscious mind through three-dimensional rectangles and color. The salmon red represents the conscious mind, while the turquoise represents the unconscious mind. Inspired by the geometric forms from Spencer Finch's breathtaking "Painting Air" exhibition.
