For Karl Smet color is not just about what the visual. For the Brussels based photographer color is about sensation. It is rare to find an photographer whose site matches the same level of creativity that is displayed within his images. Karl's categories are as much about the what color represents as it about the color itself.
Black:
For many dark is a downer. I however love to surround myself with deep blues, blacks and greens. My real estate agent differs but white and yellow rooms depress the hell out of me. Although I wear bright colors I am not so fond of looking at them. Many institutions, hospitals in particular, go to extreme measures with brightness and color to hide their actuality.
Blue:
Since everyone sees color slightly differently we all identify to certain colors in our own way. It is interesting to ask yourself what certain colors mean and if this meaning effects what you choose you wear and keep around you. Does green mean growth and rebirth or is it jealousy or maybe cash and success. Red can be desire and passion or hate and anger. Does grey make you calm or is it connected to something dull and lifeless?
