A Living Colour Index is a photo series produced in response to the days and weeks blending together during the first Covid lockdown in Northern Ireland. The interior of the artist’s home was lit entirely with a different colour each week for 7 weeks, moving through the spectrum from red to violet. The colour provided a new sensory living environment within the same space, testing the idea that novel experiences play a part in memory formation and in turn set the parameters for our experience of time. An image was posted online each day with an accompanying quotation related to space, time, perception and memory. The work was originally commissioned by the MAC in Belfast as a digital project to be shown online daily, it has since been produced in a printed format for gallery exhibition.
