Lesson 5: Juxtaposition

Juxtaposition is the placement of two things next to one another. It can be used to describe anything from colors to balloons or even people. Besides that, it also means capturing the relationship between subjects in a photo so that each part of the image has some bearing on and relativity to the other. So, it is usually done with the intention of bringing out a specific quality or creating an effect, particularly when two contrasing or opposing elements are used.

Example of juxtaposition :







example of how Juxtaposition can show how the same thought or object is interpreted in two different ways is love and jealousy. Love is the pen - ultimate emotion and feeling in anime. It's what makes the world go round, and it is the force that can topple.
