Tertiary Chromatic Study

This work is executed in white ink, a reference to light. It investigates an alternative perception of colours, where each primary colour is associated with a basic geometric shape, following Kandinsky’s association: triangle=yellow, circle=blue and square= red. The system is then expanded to the first tertiary colours of the colour wheel. Following this set of instructions, any given colour can be extrapolated to a singular sequence which can subsequently be identified in colour terms.
