Delving into the fascinating realm of color, students experiment with color's relativity, learning how it changes according to its context. The class examines how color is physically perceived and how other sensory stimulation, such as sound, can evoke color.
Students look at the differences between color mixing by pigment, light, and printed media, as well as learn technical skills, such as color mixing. The use of color in various fields, such as fine art, design, and architecture, and in various cultures is addressed.
Part studio class and part lecture, this course allows ample room for self-expression while creating a whole new way of perceiving and effecting the visual world.
