A note from Charlene Kasdorf:

“When I moved to Doha in 2012, I read an opinion piece in a magazine that deduced Doha’s skyline colour to two hues; sand-beige and boring-beige. My mind has contradicted that perspective ever since. Personally, Doha’s intense dessert light heightened my sensitivity to the subtlest of contrasts.” –– Charlene Kasdorf
The exhibition culminated perspectives on the topic of colour from various disciplines, including a poetry, music theory, and painting.
The event was driven by a desire to share the concept with a broad audience –– especially those who have said, “I know nothing about art.”
