Artist Wants To Map Every Single Human Skin Tone On Earth. Perhaps, in the near future, besides wearing mobile devices on our faces and sporting unisex high-waisted pants, we’ll cease to refer to people as black or white, or some variant in between.
Instead, we’ll use their corresponding Pantone color to describe the tone of their skin. If this happens, we’ll have to thank artist Angelica Dass for building the first database of skin hues. Dass started her project, Humanae, in April 2012, by photographing some of her Brazilian family members. Dass sampled a small pixel from the subject’s skin—usually from the well-lit cheek area—and then matched it to a Pantone hue, which is used as the backdrop. She does this with all her photographs for Humanae, which now number around 2,000. Humanæ. 'Humanae' Portraits Match People of Different Ethnicities With Their Pantone Color. Brazilian fine art photographer Angelica Dass‘ series Humanae identifies portrait subjects from around the world using the Pantone color system.
Using an 11×11 pixel swatch from her subjects’ faces, Dass matches them to corresponding Pantone colors, creating an abundant and unique catalog of skin tones that reflects the world’s diversity beyond the categorizations we have long been confined to. We recently asked her more about the ongoing project. What was your inspiration for using Pantone colors to represent humans? “If what I wanted was to destroy the concepts of colors associated with race, such as red, yellow, white and black, it would not be logical to use a color scale that works with percentages of these colors.
That’s why I chose not to use CMYK or RGB. How do you go about finding subjects for your work and what are the criteria you are looking for? Since the Pantone system is a highly structured and ordered system, how does your display of the work relate to this system? I colori della Turchia. Untitled.

Bien connu pour ses clichés d’architectures, le photographe Nick Franck a analysé les différentes notes de couleurs présentes dans ses photos et en a dressé des échantillons de Pantones.
Avec un fond monochromé, l’artiste présente une série très conceptuelle avec un graphisme minimaliste très réussi. À découvrir en images. Skymetric by Lino Russo. Le designer graphique italien Lino Russo a fait une série intitulée « Skymetric », minimaliste, colorée et très graphique.
Skymetric. The word skymetric is a construction composed by: sky and -metric (geometric).
The subject highlights the decontextualization of places and architectural spaces in order to alter the natural structure. These places have in common the fact to be all completely square, regular and schematic, so achieving geometric shots in a minimalist context, where the simplicity and cleanliness reign supreme. Another point in common is the sky, infact each shot shows with a light blue background that decisively contrasts the brilliant colors of the architectures. So this places will cease to exist, the vision that result, won’t be more accostable to the original, it will recognize only systematic and organized compositions and structures. Lino Russo is a young graphic designer, student of Graphic design at the Naple's Accademia di Belle Arti. Skymetric on Behance. 100 foto storiche ricolorate.
