Colour Time

Twelve colour studies created during a motorcycle journey from Montreal to Los Angeles in November 2021, an effort to capture sense impressions received during a day of travel.

Each work is an on-chain animated SVG minted on a custom contract, and consists of two planes of colour slowly shifting between two points of colour. The works reward durational viewing, as optical and phasing effects build complexity over time.
