Now you see it, now you don’t: Illusive color (2021)
Journal Article
Klein, S. (2021). Now you see it, now you don’t: Illusive color. The Californian Printmaker: The Journal Of The Californian Society Of Printmakers, 2021,

My practise is centered around color. As a scientist I can only emphasize that color is a miracle of the mind. Without the human soul, it does not exist. I am choosing the word soul and not brain, because colour is not only generated by the interacti... Read More about Now you see it, now you don’t: Illusive color.
