What began as a personal research project in January ’24 became something I shared on X in March in March.
Over the months since, I’ve let these 13 emotion palettes with 87 emotions rest, allowing them to reveal how they naturally fit into my life.
This visual inquiry into emotions needed time to settle and room to breathe. It gradually became part of my subconscious.
Four colors, in particular, stood out most and have come to represent a way to express more parts of myself in a way that feels unique to me—something I’ve been striving to capture for years.
Crimson (#dc143c), the color of Hurt: I link this color to my art practice. For years, art was my safe space to be myself and express my deepest pain. - epr.net/art.
Orange (#ffa500), the color of Awe: I connect this color to my life's journey. I’ve traveled, done things, and achieved dreams I once thought impossible. - epr.net/about.
Sunflower Yellow (#ffda03), the color of Curiosity: This color reminds me of my experience design career, where I’ve explored what it means to be human in an increasingly digital world. - epr.net/design.
Azure (#1e90ff), the color of Sadness: - This color represents the quiet, steady strength that comes from navigating life’s softer edges and unspoken struggles. This color captures the introspective moments that shape who we are—resilient, reflective, and deeply felt - epr.net/home.
