‘TRICK’
The immersive hue of fluorescent yellow transcends any color found in nature, yet when we look at it, we experience something similar to the felt sensation of sunlight on our skin, or the inner glow of some fulfilling experience.
Fluorescent yellow animates our moment, stimulating not only our eyes, but also other pathways in our brains.
When we turn away from it directly after, and stare at a blank white wall, we will experience the palest lavender afterimage floating before our eyes, soft, feminine, a possible enigma, or hazy memory (so fatigued are the cones in our eyes from its saturation, they only can fire a weak complimentary color).
It’s a tool that can trick the mind into imagining there’s a light source, except, there isn’t one.
Without fail, it renews my energy, and my addiction to its potent beauty.
