dc.description.abstract | This paper introduces a new model of form, emotion, and semantics through a
process of form abstraction utilizing lines. Understanding the emotional and semantic
value of form is a complex task, and many theories have been developed. Analyzing the
visual arts through line relationships and interactions is a conceptually novel approach
and offers new avenues for advancing studies in form theory, theories of emotion and
perception, and design generally. By examining literature in visual perception, form
theory, and emotion, and by historically analyzing changes in form through the aesthetic
arts and then reducing these aesthetic elements into basic linear foundations, we
developed the line model of form and emotion. This preliminary model presents form at
its structurally most abstract, simplifying three dimensionally defined shapes into line
relationships, and portrays their emotive and semantic associations for human
observers. The model also visualizes the historical changes in form and emotional and
semantic meaning across time, from the 18th century to the present day. | en |
