Black Hole

Inspired by Josef Albers’s theory of colour harmony. He was an artist and teacher of colour theory - his monochromatic paintings illustrated, how the perception of one colour is altered by the adjacent colour. This piece of artwork is a study of gradation by producing “grey steps, grey scales, grey ladders,” Albers wrote. There is a gradual stepping up or down between white and black, between light and dark. These two colours are essentially opposite in a cultural and visual sense, but black and white should not compete, but rather complete. It is been said that opposites attract i.e. create completion. The convergence of black and white is an example of how two divergent colors communicate powerfully together than they do on their own. Using the visual balance of black and white leads and directs the viewer’s gaze to the visual pop, in this case the centre.
