Confronting Implicit Attitudes: "Stand"

Implicit attitudes reflect thoughts and feelings that lie outside of individuals' conscious awareness and are challenging to express openly. These attitudes typically emerge beyond one's control, making implicit attitude measurements a more sensitive tool in this domain. Methods such as paper-pencil tests, response-time tests, and physiological measurements are used to assess implicit attitudes. These techniques aim to uncover the inner world and subconscious thoughts individuals harbor.

In "Stand," we can observe the reflections of these implicit attitudes in our daily lives. Various elements demonstrate the attitudes we try to escape from through music and feelings. These elements bring our inner conflicts and tendencies to avoid them to the surface, prompting us to confront them. "Stand" serves as a reminder to face the emotions we continuously try to evade, inviting us to engage in an honest dialogue with ourselves. This piece is designed as a tool to enhance personal awareness and to confront the implicit attitudes hidden in our subconscious.
