Description: Two of a series that combine race theory and the Bauhaus. The series was made in light of the 50th anniversary of Josef Albers' book, Interaction of Color, and the textile work of Anni Albers. "Interaction of Color" both in title and theory could also refer to relativity in racial categorizations. Left: an appropriation of the cover image of the 1st edition of Albers' book. Right: contextual skin color.
