Whiteness


This is a little hard to explain, but I’ll try. This graphic reminds me of America. We notice the black box. We notice the red box. But we don’t exactly notice the white box as much as we notice the absence of color. This is because the background is white - AKA, white is the majority. In this space, white is seen as normal. It doesn’t offend the senses. The other colors stick out, however, because they are not natural to this space. They are the minority. For me, this is the foundation of the theory of whiteness in America.
