Series:
‘Psyche’ is a series surrounding the complexity of human consciousness, specifically our individual personalities. Our personalities are invisible to the naked eye, we can only truly know someone once there is a mutual comfort and trust. Then the process of opening up begins and only then will someones true self be revealed. This series allows the viewer to immediately grasp an individuals true self/colours without the need to converse. Each painting represents a specific personality type through the specific colours used. The foundations of my colour representation comes from the Colour Code Personality Profile, created by Dr. Taylor Hartman. Hartman divided personalities intofour colours: Red (motivated by power), Blue (motivated by intimacy), White (motivated by peace), and Yellow (motivated by fun). I have chosen to build upon this and elaborate the personality profile, creating three distinctly intricate personalities.
Description:
‘Prosperous’ is a portrait which embodies the personality of an individual who is generally motivated by peace. This person will do all they can to avoid conflict, staying far away from negative remarks and anything that could damage their conscience. They are kind, considerate, patient and accepting. They are devoid of ego. They are good at constructing thoughts that did not exist before, just from careful listening and taking time to think things through. The strong presence and variation of the colour pink along with zinc white, in accordance with Hartman’s colour code, represents the bulk of this persons peaceful nature. However, there are far more colours present, these collectively represent the intricacy of consciousness. With the bulk of the colours being light, soothing pastels, this personality is overall very caring, lighthearted and spiritual. The slither of navy blue portrays the fraction of darkness which I believe is present within each of us.
