Purple perception 🟣
Students from Professor Lee Park's Chemistry 117 course (Roses are Red, Violets are Blue: The Origins, Perception, and Impact of Color) visited @williamsartmuseum's Object Lab last week. (More photos on their account!)

Hi from inside @williamsartmuseum where a @williamscollege chemistry class visited #objectlab and the #tasvirkhana installation last week! Students in Professor Lee Park’s Chemistry 117: Roses are Red, Violets are Blue: The Origins, Perception, and Impact of Color are examining color’s physical and chemical origins, measurement, and scientific description. They’re discussing how pigments have been used in works of art at different times, and the characteristics that make certain pigments suitable for particular applications. The class explores color mixing, fading, and perception of color, for example, how juxtaposed colors and intensities in prints by Richard Anuszkiewicz and Jonathan Borofsky affect how the students perceive the appearance of purple.

Explore Object Lab Spring 2021 on our website to learn more about the objects on view and the courses studying them.
