June 24 – July 5, 2015
Colour plays dynamic expressive and structural roles in the work of art, but also in our living experiences as social beings. We use colour to see the world in terms of texture and difference, and it is a primal element in language and culture – Colour is both physical and metaphysical. Thus colour is not simply a property of something, it is an event that happens at the intersection of vision and interpretation. But if colour is an event, every event needs a setting. Each colour event, no matter how small, must happen somewhere. For example, what or where is the red, without the rose? For this exhibition, Propeller members consider colour as a fluid, dynamic, linguistic, primal force. Colour as a cue, colour as contrast, difference-maker, colour to take away the breath.
