An investigation of the complex world of colour, Sinta Tantra’s Fantastic/Chromatic is a playful yet rigorous exploration and examination of the etymology of the word chroma itself – specifically as it relates to skin and ornament. Dapples of pink light pool around your feet, sliding across your face, your body, the walls. You are immersed in a pink fandango, the colour rippling across walls covered in bold geometric shapes and sharply contrasting tones. Caught between these two layers – sandwiched between pink glass and blue wall – the viewer becomes an accomplice in a theatre of colour and light. The effect is like a stage, the front façade deconstructed into a complex set of interior layers and sets.
