Multimedia and music are combined for “Color Wheel,” a live performance at the Moab Arts and Recreation Center (MARC) on Saturday, Aug. 4.

“Color Wheel” is the creation of Rae Red, a multimedia artist from Marfa, Texas. Red describes her one-woman performance as a live color experience using shadow puppets, overhead projections, stop-motion animation and song.

“I tour my shadow shows across the United States every summer,” Red said. “Each performance centers around a broad topic. Last year’s topic was water, and the year before that, it was pollination. I dive into these broad themes from my own perspective.

“Color Wheel” is an exploration into our understanding of color, and its effect on how we perceive the world around us.

As Red puts it, “Color is a product of physics and how our brains process light. Color doesn’t exist except for how our minds interpret what our eyes see.”
