Tuesday Topic: Do you dream in color or black and white?
dreamon.substack.com
Most of my dreams are in color. Azure skies, pink sunsets, blue water, red houses. I’ve only had a couple of black and white dreams in my life that I remember. They were both so significant, that I can never forget them. I get chills when I think about them. They were harbingers.
Meanwhile, in my waking life, I LOVE black and white photography. Images sans color can be so much more emotive and expressive than a color-soaked photo. I love the contrast in black and white photos, how the shapes and shadows become the art. Maybe that’s why when I do dream in black and white, it is so profound. Because in my waking life, I’m in awe of the colorless artform.
