Abstract Sky Blue

Sky Blue reflects on narrative and reality, on signs and meanings, on individual perception and the need to find a common denominator.

What is Sky Blue to you?

Yes, it is the color of the sky, but which one, is it very light or almost black?
Will it be a uniform color or gradient?

Is what you see, the same I see?

How can we name something, classify it, identify it. If it is different for each of us?…
Science, through the scientific method, tries to classify things, but leaves out everything that is marginal.
But, we live in an increasingly particular, individual and marginal world, where the common is smaller and the unusual and different is increasing.

I’m going to search for the Sky Blue, of all of us… meaning, all possible Sky Blues.

Project:
With this project, I propose, through cyanotype, to find as many blues as possible, from midday blue, on a summer day in the tropics, to midday blue, on a winter day at the Arctic circle…

Proposal:
The result of this project is a range of different Sky Blues on paper.
I would like to exhibit this composition, vertically and together in the form of group, According to space and configuration of the gallery. I also would like to present the work process.

History:
Light and color perception have always intrigued Man. In 1789, Horace Bénédict de Saussure created the Cyanometer, a scale of blues numbered in a circle, verifying that as the altitude increases, the Sky Blue darkens, due to the composition of the local atmosphere. Lord Rayleigh, furthered this study by discovering the “dispersion effect” – gradual densities of light and color from the center of its source.
