The Plutchik emotion wheel is a theoretical framework for categorizing feelings. Psychologist Robert Plutchik assigned a colour for each emotion, with a deeper colour signifying a more intense emotion. Adopting a more data-oriented approach, we created a new version of emotion wheel using the WikiArt Emotion Dataset. In the experiment, participants were asked to rate the emotions evoked by 4,105 pieces of art. In our project, we focus on non-black-and-white paintings from art movement such as color field painting in which colour is an important element in expressing emotions. The top 10 paintings receiving the highest rating from each emotion category were pixelsorted to create a gradient.
