The trilogy “Three Colors” of Krzysztof Kieslowski, is used as the basis of the work. By turning OFF individual color channels within the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) color system, only the colors that are present in the immediate title of the film are left turned ON. White is achieved by including all color channels (R: 255 G: 255, B: 255), because of RGB subtractive color system. Films are then played simultaneously side by side, on three plasma screens.


The narrative is completely eliminated and the movies are only used as a visual element. Screens are mounted vertically and form colors of the French flag, which is also a symbolic base of the Kieslowski trilogy. By literally translating the theme of the trilogy and banalising the film masterpiece, a simple composition in the style of color field painting is being made.
