Essay commissioned by the ArtEZ studium generale as part of the Bodies and Breath: Embodied Research and Writing capsule

“Color is not merely a pigment or a material property, [Sanders] uncovers in this essay. And the apparently simple question: "What is color?", turns out not to be a sensible question at all. Starting with her own body floating down the river, the question of 'what' is put aside, and color itself is encountered.”
