Overview of class

How has color informed artistic practice over time? In this seminar students will explore the principles of how color can be used and combined while analyzing its influences on human perception, emotion, and behavior. Students learn about color systems, psychology, harmony, and interactions through both theoretical study and practical application through design and collage projects. The intended aim is to develop a strong foundation in color vocabulary and visual communication. Formal studies in color will be an entry point into learning about the cultural and sociological aspects of how color plays out in broader society and the value judgments that shape contemporary and historical dialogues about this topic.
