For our final project, my group and I displayed eight moon phases with drawings which people in the public had contributed to. Originally, we wanted to hang them in a circle from the ceiling, but we put them in a circle on the wall instead. The order of the phases shows a progression from calm to anxiousness, forming an "Emotional Eclipse" cycle. This arrangement represents the continuous cycle of emotions. This setup allowed us to showcase the interactions people had with our project, even those not physically present. It captures different emotions and interpretations from those passing by, which demonstrates how complex it is to understand others' feelings. The drawings reveal a range of perceptions and realities associated with each emotion.

For the artifact, my group and I had the idea of hanging the 8 pieces of cardboard with yarn. Arriving at class, we realized we might not have enough time to hang it up on the roof with yarn and decided to tape the pieces of cardboard onto the wall. The idea of how we arranged it was inspired by images of the moons rotating in a circle that show the different phases. Here, we decided to place them as if they were rotating. We also arranged it to start with stillness and end with anxiety because our sentence for this project was: Emotional eclipse changes stillness into roaming anxiety". This inspired us to arrange the phases from stillness to anxiety.
