CMYK
—
CMYK is a model colour, C for cyan, M for magenta, Y for yellow and K for black.
This object was created based on a students' images archive. We were asked to use how many images we wanted out of 120 — 12 students, 10 images each. I decided to split all the images through CMYK different channels in order to keep the dominant colour channel in each. So, for the predominate blue images I only kept the blue (C) channel, for example. The same method was used for all.
The percentages represent the amount of each channel (CMYK) that make up the publication. The total is, 100%, of course.
Then all the images were printed in transparent paper so the matching of all images could create new ones. Overlapping them ends up with new colours too. The possibilities are numerous. It is possible to create new images, even if they became abstract now.
The aim of this publication is to show the possibilities of creating different combinations of images and colours using your own hands.
