Reality






In these photos I've tried to find a way to use light to manipulate reality. The way color in light mixes is different then how paint mixes and so does not match the usuall rules we are taught. By shining three different color lights and blocking one you can cause not only colored shadows but shadows of the 'wrong' colors. I'm also playing with the idea that a shadow of a thing is as specific as the physical thing itself. We will link the silhouette to the physical object. So in a way, a shadow is as much a 'thing' as an object even though its not tangible.
