In this project, I seek to personalise the identity of the psychological concepts familiar to everyone. In other words, to visualise inanimate psychological terminology as individual portraits. I relate to the concept of gestalt, even though it is most often used in a simplified sense. However, the basic definition from Wiki is very close to my own.
Gestalt — a collection of physical, biological, psychological or symbolic elements that creates a unified concept or pattern which is other than the sum of its parts, due to the relationships between the parts of a character, personality, entity, or being.
This definition is the essence of my own creative process — to create something that is more valuable than the sum of its constituent parts, due to the interaction of those parts or due to the image that is ultimately created from those parts.
For example, the head consists of a disk and a ring. The disk has a geometric pattern composed of simple objects. These objects are derivatives of the square and the circle. Together they comprise a spatial composition of the character's head. Yet, the character is perceived at the level of general association, but neither of his components carries the idea of a part of the character or personality.
In psychology, the concept of gestalt is a bit distorted, it is more of a concept of wholeness (closed or open). This idea is visualized as a dynamic pattern in the AR layer — a symbol of something constantly changing.
