Color Bounce is a series that explores the physical implication of color. Direct color is obscured from the viewer so as to highlight the effect of color on its environment. Ambient light in the space surrounding each work produces the color you see- reflected, indirect color. Multiple coats of white gesso prepare each surface to receive the reflected, “bounced” color as if it were paint. Each work in this series attempts to paint with light by creating a volume of color through the serene action of the bounce.
Color mixing within the Color Bounce series operates under the rules of additive color and RGB colorspace. Collectively, the artworks in this series all point to a fundamental narrative of color, in and of itself.
