| Details: | As a fictive academic course, Advanced Geochromatic Studies is part of an open-ended inquiry into color and its representation in science, pseudo-science, and the spiritual. This series of improvisational compositions on handmade paper utilizes color theory, aesthetics, optics, and poetry culled from local academic institutions. These components are collaged with collected geological debris from various sites. In addition to collage, bars of linen pulp paint have been applied through stencils as a provisional color key. The arrangement of these disparate artifacts and sources becomes a metaphor for interdisciplinary study, wherein students gain proficiency in the historic and contemporary concepts of Geochromatics. As part of a larger curricular sequence, the Advanced Geochromatic Studies explores both rational and irrational applications of color in the context of historical precedence and speculative interpretation. Special emphasis is placed on geological matter as it pertains to the physicality of color.
