Breathing Colour by Hella Jongerius
“Breathing Colour blurs the boundaries between art and design. Combining intriguing shapes with extensive research; this exhibition questions our preconceptions of colour and embraces its imperfection and experimentation.
The exhibition is divided into separate spaces that simulate daylight conditions at specific times of the day - morning, noon and evening. These three phases explore the impact of changing daylight on our perception of colour.”
This is a brilliant exhibition for everyone who works with colour, loves colour, breathes colour. The research done is thorough and the objects on show such as textiles, paper objects, ceramics and glass show off beautifully how colour behaves during different times of the day and night.
The exhibition is on until 24 September at the Design Museum.
