The first collaboration between designer Mo Neuharth and poet Jacqueline Suskin explores a conversation about the complexity of color. The inspiration for this project came from a dialogue between the two artists as they considered Mo's collection of vintage dead stock construction paper. Each poem responds to not only the paper itself, but also to the way both artists experience the color.
