Saffron and Red are considered sacred colors in Indian culture. One of them stands for courage and selflessness, while the other represents sensuality and purity. Also according to the most common type of color blindness reds are perceived as yellow-brownish areas. How wide is your color range?

SPECTRUM proposes itself as a reflection on the powerful role that a “color” plays in understanding a person and, above all, on how individuals decide to present themselves through their specific choices. The idea was materialized from personal “color” preferences, not necessarily actual colors, but maybe social, cultural, religious, political choices, more or less metaphorically translated into color concepts or meanings. SPECTRUM should be: first - a conversation about color in general, a journey through different cultures and traditions; second and most important, the project is a celebration of EQUALITY!
