Amanda Williams has experienced the effect of color all her life and dedicated her life to understanding it. In her project, “Color(ed) Theory”, she applied colours close to the heart of the people of Chicago to abandoned homes – the largest canvas she could find – and the response is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
