    The color palette of the painting is diverse, while red and warm earth tones dominate the painting. The light source seems to be in front of the left section of the picture while dispersing towards the right. The use of light gives the illusions of volume. The gradation of the sky is very exaggerated. The top is a dark blue and as it reaches the middle the sky is very light. The painting has a smooth finish and is very detailed. The flowers on the bottom are very intricate as well as the patterns of the people’s garments. Each face has a distinguished and unique appearance; no two faces are…

    5. The figure behind the wallpaper symbolizes many things. First and foremost, it symbolizes the narrator. The narrator connects to the woman in wallpaper because like herself she is trapped in the room. Also, the woman is described as being trapped “behind” the wallpaper. This description is symbolic in that women of that time were often trapped behind their husbands. The narrator works to remove the wallpaper so she can set the woman behind it free. This also symbolizes the narrator and her desire to set herself free from her controlling husband.…

    The reading first starts off by talking about the photograph of her father. I think this is a good example of how images shape someone’s life. They tell stories, hold memories, and share the past. I believe this when the author states this passage: “This snapshot was taken before marriage, before us, his seven children, before our presence in his life forced him to leave behind the carefree masculine identity this pose conveys.” (Bell Hooks. “In Our Glory: Photography and Black Life.” Rhetorical Visions.…

    Through the use of bright “modern” neon colors, the character's physique and posture, and adaptation of modern “pop-art” style, the artist portrays the message of rebelling against the classical American society's norms and promotes the importance of trying new things. The painting oozes with bright colors and happiness, but behind all that sends one important message. The message of not being afraid to stand out. Berger, a world-known art critic, had this belief that pictures help us jump to conclusions before words can. We tend to believe what our eyes see, more than what our mind reads.…

    The image on page twenty-one depicts the scene of the boys’ father and friends driving when an Aboriginal boy jumps put at them in hopes to scare them. The use of dull colours makes the reader focus on the Aboriginal boy who has a spotlight on him from the headlights. The photo of the blurry Aboriginal child at the bottom of the page could symbolise that the Aboriginal child was slowly being forgotten or that he was in the back of the boys mind and was a constant memory. It could also tie to the theme of the Stolen Generation as children went missing and became nothing but a blurry memory for their families to remember. Next to the boy is an empty packet of tablets and this could be the illustrator’s way of telling the reader that the boy was depressed and since the background is black that could symbolise nothingness or darkness that the boy feels is engulfing him. The series of images at the top of the page could portray scattered memories that the boy is using the tablets to escape from. An excerpt from page sixty-five “them finding me on my bed, almost gone” gives evidence of the boy wanting an ‘escape’ from the grief he feels and possibly making a suicide attempt to permanently escape the dark places in the depths of his mind.…

    Moreover, it aims to reveal the consequences of the stigma associated with depression and those suffering from it. Divided into two ‘worlds’, the black on the right represents the loneliness and gloom that often accompany depression. It symbolises death in the form of self destruction, with the darkness and solidity of the colour signifying a distinct barrier and segregation from the ‘outside world’ resulting from the stigma. The grey prison bars behind which the figure sits portray the idea of institutionalisation, and the way in which it traps those suffering from depression, disabling them from reaching happiness and freedom, namely, the yellow side. Evidently, the yellow side is in open space, signifying a life that allows self-governance, unlike life in a total institution (i.e. psychiatric hospital). The painting also incorporates three stick figures, with two that are sitting in opposing sides of the canvas, pulling the figure in the middle by a rope to their sides; either to happiness (yellow), or depression (black). It can be seen that the limbs of the middle figure are reaching out towards the yellow area, however, their body is distinctly towards the black side. This signifies the desire of depression sufferers to reach contentment, but the inability of their mind and body to do so.…
