"Red has guts .... deep, strong, dramatic. A geranium red. A Goya red ... to be used like gold for furnishing a house ... for clothes, it is strong, like black or white." - Valentino
When I meet a color, then somehow the color tends to bring something in the same color. This time, it is color "red" for me. Last week, I purchased a bright red colored dress, a very unusual color selection for me. It could perhaps be worn for a jazz live I'm going in two weeks time.
So here the color followed. Yesterday, I got a flower gift from my friend. Flower gift is, in fact, one of the most exciting present to receive from someone: simple and natural but heartful and considerate. It was Garbera in passionate red.
The color reminds me of Spanish movies especially the pieces by
Pedro Almodovar.It also reminded me of
"Genio y Figura", the exibision held at the
Museum of Modern Art, Saitama in 2005.
Red is sometime too strong and powerful. It's unlike color for Spring, the season which is full of gentle colors like light pink, yellow, white with bright green. Sometime, such bright color gives a spice to a gentle season.
