Blue Monday

2011

Drawings | Photo Collages | Painting | Intervention | Photographs| Exhibition

 

Blue Monday is a project that inspired by the metaphysical code created by the Uruguayan poet Jorge Adoum and medical condition of Synesthesia, a condition where people see colors when they hear music, or see letters.

Based on these codes, Berchem created his own alphabet of designated colors, which are presented through a series of drawings, photos, and paintings of texts, where the artist explores the concept of guilt, failure and the poetic.
