Advanced Geochromatic Studies continues an open-ended inquiry into color and its representation in science, pseudo-science, and the spiritual.The focal points of the exhibition are two large color altars each incorporating wall prints, plinths, and new video pieces, Circles in Circles (Color Meditation) & Analogue Color Therapy (Birren). The work builds on elements from our 2020 exhibition, Intermediate Geochromatic Studies, and incorporates various handmade paperworks as well as a new series of handmade beaded talismans, Circles in Circles, produced in our kitchen-turned-studio during quarantine. As part of a larger curricular sequence, the Advanced Geochromatic Studies explores both rational and irrational applications of color in the context of historical precedence and speculative interpretation.
The following video is a gallery talk produced to accompany the exhibition...
