Color Study

Color originally don't give us any feelings. It is just part of the spectrum.

I thought that I could see in black and white with some kind of special glasses, and of course there is no such thing. Then I tried to turn my smartphone and computer into "grayscale" mode. I received information for a month with these devices. Through the removal of color, I tried to find some alternative interaction with color. 

"B&W Screen" is a summary of my experience for the month, in the form of a handwritten notebook and pictures about the discoveries and feelings in the process. "Grayscale" is a painting showing three primary colors of light. It shows  the essence of color we see. You may find, even different color have the same gray,
顏色本來不帶任何感情,它們只是光譜上的其中一段。

一度以為有一種眼鏡戴了後可以令看到的東西變成黑白,結果發現原來沒有。於是我轉向以黑白的電子屏幕作體驗,用只有灰階嘅智能手機、電腦接收資訊,為期一個月。在這體驗中,我希望跳出慣性,透過去除色彩,發現生活中跟顏色的另類互動。

​《
半色盲》是行為體驗的總結,以手寫筆記本的形式記錄,同時以相關圖片展示我過程中的發現和感受。《灰階》繪畫出光的三原色,展出我們所見顏色的本質。即使不同顏色也會有相同的灰度,當我們用灰階看的時候可會何不同?
