Spectrum: The Colour of Music

Feb 6 – Mar 22, 2025

by Shirley Elias w/Anna Schwartz

Opening Reception
Feb 6 @ 7pm

Spectrum is a unique marriage of art and science, a stuffing audio-visual spectacle, giving the audience a true and personal insight into the creative mind of the synesthete. – Dr. Julia Simner, Professor of Neuropsychology at the University of Sussex.

Bring your phone and earbuds for this multi-faceted and interactive exhibit!

Spectrum: The Colour of Music will give you a glimpse of a synesthete’s experience. Synesthesia is a rare phenomenon experienced by approx. 4% of the world’s population; a blending of the senses, in this case, music and colour. Listening to music automatically triggers colours.
