THE THINGS COLOUR DOES

We tend to think of colour as something we see, select, and place. But colour is far less fixed than it appears. A colour that appears perfectly resolved in one setting can become something else entirely in another. Even our own eyes are not neutral observers. The more closely we look, the less colour behaves like a consistent property—and the more it begins to reveal itself as a relationship between light, matter, perception, environment, and experience. Look again.
