In the collection

  • Blue Interval

    Ines Okafor · 1988

    Four blues, nested and set slightly low, so the inner square seems to rise. Okafor printed the edition in one night so that the humidity would not change the colors.

  • Yellow Measure

    Ines Okafor · 1990

    Bands of yellow, each one exactly as wide as the gap above it. Okafor called these prints rulers for color.

  • Interval Suite No. 4

    Ines Okafor · 1992

    A red square and a green square of equal brightness, side by side, so the border between them seems to flicker. The fourth of six prints about colors that cancel out.
