Moira Ness
February 15 – March 7
In the series “HEX”, artist Moira Ness seeks out bold, single coloured buildings to photograph around the GTA, samples the colour in Photoshop, revealing the associated hexadecimal colour code and its name. The applied name brings an unseen and unintentional personal meaning to the photo as the audience tries to relate the title to the subject.
