This collection of symbolic, surrealist art with minimal typography is based on color theory and takes the reader from one color to the next across the visible light spectrum. It sheds light and provides deeper psychological meaning to the colors themselves as the book progresses to its circular, logical conclusion.
The journey in Kelly's chromatic book is designed to transition the reader seamlessly from one emotion to the next, creating a cohesive, immersive experience. Beginning with the fiery intensity of red, the narrative moves through the vibrant, reassuring warmth of orange to the radiant, self-identity, and energy of yellow. As it progresses, the journey descends into the manifesting growth and comfort of greens before plunging into the fascinating emotional depths of blue, ultimately culminating in the enigmatic, insightful, and intuitive spiritual wisdom of violet.
Each transition is marked by a shift in visual tone and emotional undertone, guiding the readers through a spectrum of feelings akin to the gradual change of light from dawn to dusk. The narrative weaves through these colors, exploring vignettes and scenes that reflect the essence of each hue.
