Visual language deals with the presentation and expression of thinking and feeling in visual terms. It extends from the pioneering work of Rudolph Arnheimto the studies by Robert Horn and can include the use of visual expression in the method of active imagination developed by Carl C. Jung. Visual language can include words, images and shapes in its content. It stems from the proposition that we can 'draw' our thinking as well as verbalize it.
