Clash/Complement

16 Aug

Design Festa Gallery, Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan

Clash.

Complement.

Neutral.

Power to sooth.

Power to enrage.

Songs have been written about it.

One thing is for certain.

Its everywhere.

All around us.

What am I talking about?

You guessed it.

Colour.

Wikipedia’s definition of colour is “the visual perceptual property corresponding in humans to the categories called red, green, blue and others. Colour derives from the spectrum of light (distribution of light energy versus wavelength) interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the light receptors.”

In Michele Bernhardt’s book, Colorstrology, she says: “The colors we see all around us are reflections of the sun’s light in all its glory. It is magic made visible.”

So, I’m here to capture that magic and report back to you.

What if you woke up tomorrow and the world was black, white and shades of grey?

Food would lose it’s appeal, nature would be boring, our streets would be dull.

Everything that we know would be flat and depressing.

Colour is such an important part of our lives.

So, come and enter this journey of colour…
