“Hot guys of summer.” “Hot guys and hot models.” “Emojis, hearts, crushes, and pink.” Once I saw the collage, everything about it was screaming HOT. By just looking at these pictures, you can immediately think of various topics and not just one. It can represent sex, desire, passion, etc. But then I see an image of a pizza, an avocado, and a plane soaring through the clouds and from that I immediately think that this can relate to Global Warming. The gradual increase in temperature and climate change. A pizza is round so it can represent the earth’s shape. The avocado has an egg in the middle which can represent earth’s core. The plane soaring through the clouds shows us the atmospheric pressure. Pictures can have a thousand meanings and that is why you cannot just put a simple word or definition to these images.
The collage was colorful and everything seemed to be pasted in all places. There was no uniform way or style of putting the images together. The one bold thing that stood out was the word HOT. The mystery word may deal with the word hot and I believe it is the main clue to the mystery.
“A picture is worth a thousand words,” an expression or quote that a simple image can convey so many ideas. It can tell us a story without using words. The idea of visualization allows us to freely express our thoughts in our minds. There is no right or wrong answer because visual art is made to be looked at a thousand different ways.
