Without Image: an Artistic Perspective on Aphantasia
Imagination describes the ability to create mental images and recall them in the mind's eye. This ability varies and can sometimes be absent. Aphantasia refers to this: limited or absent visual imagination. Visions remain abstract, with no word-to-image translation.
In “Without Image”, Rhoda Herold explores the visual translation of this phenomenon. The result is code-based deconstructed type that metaphorically represents imagination with aphantasia.
