From "Video 2012""These video paintings consist of red, green and blue light projected onto a traditional painted surface.
"To form a color using RGB, each colored light beam is superimposed and emitted from a black screen, or via reflection onto a white screen.
"Each of these three beams is a component of that color, and each possesses an arbitrary intensity within the mix, from fully off to fully on."
