Colours of China
Whoever we are, and wherever we live; colour has an immense influence on our lives
Five colours resonate through every layer of traditional and modern Chinese life representing emotional, physical, spiritual and directional forces. In the centre, is yellow, surrounded by blue for east, red for south, white for west and black for the north. Guided by these profoundly influential colours, the audience embarks on a visual and cultural journey to discover spectacular landscapes, moods, seasons and regions; unpacking the complex relationship between Colour and Chinese culture.
