Today, again the 2013 heart springs to mind but at this stage, still don’t know why ... However, experiencing Covid Lockdown I’m thinking it’s a very good time to start a commission for a panel regarding the “emotional effects of anger” - after all, I was experiencing this "angry" situation where you couldn't do exactly what you wanted to ... in fact this was the true case globally. But at least I could do something “to stay sane” … & surely by experiencing some sort of anger, wasn’t it also a good first-hand exercise?
So … to get going … research more about the topic of ANGER … BUT at first glance, it appears to be fairly simple! After all, when you “see red” that is what you must see - RIGHT? … maybe a better starting point would be colour … QUESTION … what often happens in anger? In many instances (from general research regarding the effects of Anger on all those involved), people often get physically harmed … blood is often seen … & bandages are usually needed so first thoughts were those from physical acts. When anyone bleeds, by “controlling the bleeding”, things can begin to mend so … QUESTION … could a bandage be used for a symbol of control?
Further research confirmed Anger was indeed a ‘controlling method’ but also discovered what was involved in a ‘cycle of anger’. Reading more, “a bandage” became more significant as these fabric strips could also represent ties, ropes or gags used for various ‘forms of bondage’. It was also interesting to note that the 2 words were almost identical in their spelling with just an A or O being different. I now had my answer … so off to start making some blood-soaked strips of fabric for the panel to begin!
