The word photography is derived from latin, "photon" and "graph", meaning (writing with light). In its essence photography is all about capturing light; either light bouncing off of or being absorbed by an object. This phenomena produces colour. The iconography of and expression through colour leads down many roads; the emotional, psychological, the spiritual and the sublime, as well as its many practical, utilitarian applications. Colour has been scientifically defined and explained. It’s been studied by advertising people in an effort to discover its ability to manipulate emotions and compel behaviour. Artists have been observing and experimenting with colour…, well, for as long as there have been artists.
Using various coloured and polished glass cubes, these photographs employ my studies and research in colour theory with still life photography.
