Deep Bay Residency Project
Residency dates: July 11 to 24
During her residency, Angeline Schellenberg will work on her collection of prose poems about colour, The Spectral Existence of Magenta. This collection mines the history of each pigment: its chemical composition, its use in art, the origin of its name and its appearance in nature. Each hue reveals something about the human story: race, religion, art, science – and across the spectrum – longing.
