Tiivistelmä
In this written part of the Bachelor’s Thesis I research the subject of practice of emotional safety as a method in visual art. I report the artistic process of the series of paintings Nesting, my artistic part of the Thesis. The report includes both thematic and concrete sides of the process.
For a deeper understanding towards the subject the theoretical part includes exploring the emotions of fear and unsafety. Nyt iskee pelko – Pelko tieto- ja kaunokirjallisuudessa ja suomalaisten kokemuksissa, a book by Marja-Liisa Julkunen and Saara Koikkalainen is used to expand knowledge of the motif of fear. Research material also includes writings of social psychology and life management.
Sources have been chosen from material produced in the 21st century, to best depict the zeitgeist that affects the overall emotional security of a Western person. Miina Savolainen’s research work “The Loveliest Girl in The World” and Terhi Kaakinen’s Bachelor’s Thesis “Security?” are the two reference works that are in the center of attention.
Conclusion summarize the learned information about mechanisms of fear, aspects that have an effect to emotional safety and painting techniques used during the artistic process.
