This image is an image related to bullying. It is slightly directed toward homophobia, but it is designed to be relatable to any bullying situation. The picture is various different words and phrases, typed in a shape that looks like the word bullied. The word ‘bullied’ was used because it is intended to be interpretable. If someone who is being bullied sees the image they can interpret the image as speaking to people who are being bullied, whereas if someone who has overcome bullying sees the image they can interpret the image as for someone looking back on their experience being bullied. The image contains many different words and phrases, which are usually common insults that are used by bullies or simple phrases that express the feelings of the victim. They are varied to apply to anyone. Again, they are interpretable. If someone who is being bullied sees the image they will see the words as a visual representation of how they feel. If someone who has overcome bullying sees this they will consider the words to be memories of what they used to feel.
