Short description:
In this joined work we highlight the way we view our society’s depictions of emotions with regards of media actual truthfulness of information and the influences that create with in society. which is largely driven by consumerism and materialistic views of happiness.
We hope that our final piece will encourage people to question our own understanding of sarcasm and emotions but will also provide a very positive message about feelings.
