What would you say the mood is in the painting?

I'm writing a visual analysis for an art class that I'm in and one of the topics I need to discuss in my analysis is the mood. I figured I'd get the 'berry's input to see if y'all land in the same relative area I'm thinking, or even present a different perspective of mood.

I have all the other bits covered, just getting ideas on this part.

I do not have any artist information or any other info about the piece.

Have fun... or don't. Don't let me tell you what to do.

So what would you the mood is here?

You can see the artist is expressing inner turmoil and the desire to break the shackles of childhood repression. The color selection and defined edges represents the attempts to stifle and put the artist in conventional boxes, but the small areas of overlap represent the artists trying to break free of convention. Lol

I think it's about trying to organize and make sense out of the chaos around you. Here on earth everything is messy and the dark and bright are all around but only in small sections. There are straight lines to follow, but even those are surrounded by turmoil.

The heavens are clean, bright, and warm. Nothing complex to navigate. No conflict.

IMO, homie has one foot on the stool.
 
our thought paths are starting to converge
yes yes!!!

The sharpness of the pillars of hanger, pointing at the red hot sun, signifying his dismay at having to work in the yellow fields of corn, when he really wishes he was at Miguel's, eating some enchiladas.

The mood is light and airy with undertones of dark and dreary...not exactly light as a feather, but not exactly scary.
Feels like a whirlwind of geometrical shapes laid on top of one another it what might be called...a fabric.

A fabric that is rigid yet not stiff, its pliable in a way that you could lay under it for warmth yet still have cold toes because it refuses to snuggle your feet.

Its a beautiful sunrise in a mid-day sky looking out for the match to its existence but finding only itself for comfort.

Its a lonely hearts struggle to overcome the will of the world underneath all that is pressing down on top of it.
All of life's failures and disappointments eeking and inching its way to the surface.


Hope that helps @Other
