The word I've randomly chosen is pena ajena. It's a Spanish word that means feeling embarrassed for someone else. We don' have an english word for it, but it is commonly known by the slang term "face palm". I am going to do a triptych that show two people. one making a fool out of themselves, and the other having a cringe-like reaction. Since this isn't a happy feeling to get, these pictures will have a dull, low saturated tone. i want to capture the expression of the person feeling bad or embarrassed for the other.
