My project is meant to make the audience understand how I felt looking at the painting, "Red Painting" by Ad Reinhardt, and my experience with colorblindness.
This is a great project. Art is about the message the artist wants to convey and him/her conveying it. You wanted to convey your experience with colors and by using a painting that was difficult for everyone to distinguish the colors and in return, creating a product with the color test and a question mark in the middle, I think you conveyed it very well. I especially liked the the bigger circles since it gave a feeling like falling into the question mark.
Also, the friend you had with you at the museum sounds like a great person.
I really liked this piece, especially after knowing the background to it. Your experience I think was especially unique because of your color-blindness and I really like how you tried to emulate that in your piece. I think the color-test idea is great and the question mark shape definitely displays your confusion and frustration.
I think it's interesting how you made different versions as well, and the varying shapes of the circles were also a nice touch to the composition. Great work !!
