scared bbz

emojis for the highly anxious ~

The intention of this project is to inject some humour into the black hole that is navigating mental health, with the goal of embracing our emotions and encouraging openness. No more hiding our feelings- let's share them.

This project began during covid lockdown, when anxiety was at an all-time high. We took to social media to stay connected. But no existing emoji we sent could fully capture the intensity of what we were feeling.

So I started drawing my own.

It quickly became a way to cope. I was reconnecting with my creativity and entertaining myself through this expression.

I'd post a few drawings and take a poll, "which one r u ??"

A friend said "these would make great NFTS" (I said, "what r NFTS")

I created a character template and drew different 'anxiety' traits for the mouth/hair/eyes, then ran them through a random generator.

Out birthed 99 uniquely anxious "scared bbz."

Each one has been named with care.

So tell me, which one r u ??
