# visual-tension

Stretching, deformation, or contrast creates a pulled visual tension.

## Structure

- Elements appear stretched, compressed, or in conflict
- Opposing forces implied through shape distortion or contrast
- Visual instability that draws the eye
- Tension resolved or unresolved depending on message

## Best For

- Conflict or challenge narratives
- Before/during transformation content
- Emotional or psychological concepts
- Abstract concept visualization

## Visual Elements

- Distorted or stretched shapes
- Opposing color or size contrasts
- Implied force vectors (arrows, lines pulling in opposite directions)
- Optional motion blur or deformation effects

## Text Placement

- Title in a stable zone outside the tension area
- Labels near the tension points
- Resolution text at the bottom

## Recommended Pairings

- `high-contrast-ad`: High-contrast tension compositions
- `neon-futurism`: Glitch-style distortion
- `glitch-art`: Torn and fragmented tension
