Red for a while: Clandestine Garden in Red
As I have been walking around during the day I have noticed the most wonderful shades of red foliage and flowers that are being planted for late summer. What a beautfiul site to see shades of maroon, deep purple, blood red and rust mingled together with very little green in one garden installation. Strange how your mind works out an art project before it even exists. Perhaps that is another evolving theme for Clandestine Garden, red of nature and red of man-made objects... such as the rust from the damaged area of a crash car mingling with the red of a flower.
A recent study conducted at Cornell (hard to believe but true) showed that men were more sexually attracted to women who wore red than other colors, like blue.
Matadors use red capes to antagonize bulls (along with spikes in their dicks)
A red flag means warning... be cautious
Red cars are thought to be unlucky. We give lovers red roses. Red cool-aid was served at Jones Town.
Red = lust
Red= violence
Red = passion
Red = love
Red= rage
