Project 1: Color as Medium

The goal

Prove Kant wrong. Use color as the primary medium in the creation of two works: one using additive color (a projected image) and another using subtractive color (a large-format print). The two works should begin with identical source materials, created in either a CMYK or RGB color space (for the print / projection, accordingly). When creating the second version, do not reposition / change the forms themselves or their placement in the image plane, simply change the color mode (and be sure not to “merge layers” when changing color modes) and manipulate the image by altering the blend modes and order of the layers in your document; you may also use adjustment layers to manipulate the colors of the layers in your file.
