Frequency / Chronology 2022

The cycle between light and dark, day and night, reveals a daily spectacle of color which has long-inspired scientists and artists, bringing forth a canon of theories about color and perception. Frequency/Chronology is a series of mixed media installations that explore those theories to create an immersive dialogue on color. Presented at Fosdick-Nelson Gallery at Alfred University in 2022, Curated by Sharon C McConnell.
