semiotics first image
First image:
Signifier – The picture contains school books and folders sprawled on the floor.
Signified – Folders and school books shows that this is a student’s room. The folders are all over the floor it shows that the student has quite a care-free attitude towards their school work. Also, because the folders have been left on the floor and not put on the desk it emphasizes further how the student isn’t really bothered about school.
The sign is iconic as the image shows that the school work as just been casually left on the floor highlighting the student is not bothered about school work.
