在「言語霸凌」雕塑設計中,主要探討言語霸凌對個體心理層面的影響,並透過視覺藝術將其具象化,使觀者能夠直觀感受到語言暴力帶來的衝擊與壓迫。而草圖主要為:表達被負面詞彙、霸凌等行為傷害、壓垮的人,而在整體設計中新增了其他元素。將霸凌的文字予以具象化來呈現視覺衝擊感。主設計概念圍繞著「語言如同鋒利的武器,能夠無形傷人」,因此,圖像選擇以極具張力的視覺符號來詮釋這種痛苦與折磨。
手持的手機被符號化,以象徵網路霸凌的存在,螢幕上暗示著在數位環境中,霸凌的行為往往更加隱蔽卻殺傷力更強。失焦效果則強調了受害者可能出現的心理扭曲與精神壓力。不僅是對言語霸凌的視覺再現,更是一次情感的共鳴,讓觀者能夠深入理解這種無形暴力的影響,進而引發對話與反思。
In the design of the "Verbal Bullying" sculpture, the primary focus is on exploring the profound psychological impact of verbal bullying and transforming it into a tangible visual representation. By using visual art as a medium, the sculpture aims to make viewers intuitively feel the oppression and emotional distress caused by verbal violence. The sketches primarily depict individuals who are deeply wounded and crushed by negative words, bullying, and other harmful behaviors. Additional elements are incorporated to enhance the overall impact and immerse the viewer in the emotional weight of the subject matter. The textual representation of bullying words is integrated into the composition, creating a strong visual impact that underscores the intensity of verbal aggression.
The central design concept revolves around the idea that "language is like a sharp weapon that can inflict pain invisibly." To bring this concept to life, the artwork employs highly expressive visual symbols that capture the torment and suffering endured by victims of verbal bullying. A handheld mobile phone serves as a powerful symbol of the prevalence of cyberbullying in modern society, emphasizing the role of digital communication in perpetuating harmful interactions. The screen of the phone subtly conveys the idea that in an online environment, bullying is often more covert, yet its effects can be even more damaging due to the anonymity and relentless nature of digital harassment.
To further heighten the emotional depth of the sculpture, an out-of-focus effect is utilized, symbolizing the psychological distortion and immense mental pressure that victims experience. This blurred perception reflects the confusion, anxiety, and distress felt by those subjected to verbal bullying. The piece not only visually represents the harsh reality of verbal abuse but also seeks to evoke emotional resonance in its viewers, encouraging them to deeply contemplate the consequences of such invisible violence. By fostering dialogue and introspection, the sculpture aims to raise awareness, spark discussions, and inspire action against verbal bullying in all its forms.
