My recent “break out of Covid jail” experience took me into New York City to see the Museum Of Natural History’s “Nature of Color” exhibit. This was an immersive and educational exhibit, with spaces for exploration as well as reflection.
One of my favorite experiences was dancing in front of this color pattern wall and seeing the movement reflected on the wall. Look at how the shape of light dances!
My favorite “thought provoker” was Angelica Dass’s “The Color of You”. This exhibit used Pantone color boxes as a pallet for portraits of over 100 human faces. It highlights our misuse of separating people, or, putting them into “boxes”, by color.
The Nature of Color Exhibit in the Museum of Natural History is ongoing through December 2021. I encourage you to check it out if you are ever in the NYC area this year!
