Blue, Red and Transparent Me
Through simple figures and colors, this picture book shows how we are all precious beings with our own unique personalities. A blue dream visits a small, non-descript circle but the blue traces left on the circle leave it forever changed. Likewise, a red passion visits the circle and the red traces left on the circle change it too. Then an invisible imagination leaves traces as different as we can imagine and embrace. This work reminds us that with blue, red, black, invisible, complicated features, we are all unique, beautiful beings with our own patterns and traces.
