In Search Of Blue
It is easy to fall in love with a color. Studying color and understanding its facility requires devotion. Attention and generosity must be paid to making it, to directing the feelings it elicits, to anticipating and discovering its harmonies or discordances with other colors.
Blue, the shortest and most energetic wavelength on the visible color spectrum, holds a powerful sway over us. It is attractive, it is calming, but it also holds depths bordering on the sublime. The sky changes, but eternally returns to blue. Maybe that lends to the pigment the sky鈥檚 immense gravity.
Finding the right blue is a quest鈥攖he blue that has the depth of the ocean, that shocks like glacial ice, that reminds us of heaven. Using blue is also a search for blue, for the eternal, for the vast. Blue is a wide and boundless color, one we can easily get lost in.
In Search of Blue is an exhibit of works about the color Blue and all that it may convey.
