COMPLETELY COLOR: Color and Human Experience

People appreciate and respond to color in different ways depending on innate response, personal experience, education, and professional interests.  We invite creative thoughts and expressions on color with respect to emotions, observations, theories, research, memories, and culture. Open to all creatives: artists, scientists, designers, and anyone who is passionate about expressing themselves through color. However color inspires you, we invite you to inspire us!

Sponsored by the Inter-Society Color Council COMPLETELY COLOR is part of Color Impact 2023: Color and Human Experience. The conference is presented by the Inter-Society Color Council at Rochester Institute of Technology in upstate New York. ISCC advances the knowledge of color as it relates to art, science, industry, and design. Each of these fields enriches the others, furthering the general objective of color education. This will be a virtual exhibition and all works will be displayed on the Color Impact 2023 Color and Human Experience Art Exhibition Website.

The Online Exhibit will be presented at the conference and available on the website.

Awards

A Best of Show will be awarded for each of these categories: Student, Amateur, Professional 

Jurying Process

To further our interdisciplinary approach, we have asked two jurors, Mark Fairchild from the color science community and Danielle Siembieda-Gribben from the arts community.  Jurors are asked to consider design skills, technical elements, presentation, and the expressive, imaginative, conceptual, or innovative content of the work. Jurors will keep a balanced show in mind but are not required to select a specific quota in each medium or color focus.
