AB - In the visual essay, we present the images produced by participants during a study on the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic and Brexit on the emotions and feelings of middle-aged European citizens. The study was conducted using an art-based method where participants were asked to produce some form of artwork(a drawing, a collage, a photograph, a video or even apiece of music) and were then interviewed by the researchers. The emphasis was focused on the emotional states experienced by the participants during the lockdowns and in their new citizen status post-Brexit. The visual essay features some of the participants' artwork, representing their feelings and moods during that period and includes extracts from the interviews conducted in the follow-up of the artworks. The images create a gallery, a visual tour of felt emotions, highlighting the singularity of the participants' affective states as well as the condensed meanings of shared symbols they used.
