“Project Blue”, is a group show featuring photographic works by Melbourne artists asked to incorporate the colour blue within their work.
The history, value, and meaning of the colour blue are an interesting and continually evolving concept. Theories associated with peace, melancholy, the infinite, nobility, and democracy have dominate Western colour symbolism and artists such as Picasso and Christo & Jeanne-Claude have gravitated toward the colour to express their skill and emotion.
Each work consequently sets to portray the photographer’s observation to the additive primary colour blue, exploring the concepts, meanings, and effects associated. The artists are then asked to describe their photograph to the viewer through written word.
