psychography

Originally meaning 'the production of images of spirits on film without the use of a camera', it has been more recently appropriated as hip lingo for the transmission of emotion or the spirit within an image, painting, visual artistic work, etc.

Psycheography

Psycheography (n.) — The exposure of the soul without covenant; the revealing of one’s deepest emotional or spiritual self before trust has been earned or safety has been established.
