Cheyney Thompson : Metric, Pedestal, Landlord, Cabengo, Recit

Cheyney Thompson has made the technology, production and distribution of painting the subject of his work. His Chronochromes (2009-2011) are composed using the color system devised by Albert H. Munsell in the early 1900s. Thompson grafts this system onto a calendar: each day is assigned a complementary hue pair, with every hour changing the value, and every month changing the saturation, of each brushstroke.
