Which Day is Yellow?

In September 2019 SHARP gallery ran a workshop at the Welcome Collection ‘What does Red Mean to You?’.  It explored what different colours mean to us and how we relate to them. As the lockdowns have taken over the past year, many people have felt time merging and the distinction of the division of the week has become weaker.  In the workshop ‘Which Day is Yellow?’, SHARP gallery explored the history of the the colours associated with different days of the week and how these can shape our mentality to productivity and wellbeing.  

There are so many ways to introduce the influence of colour in our lives, from fashion, decor and art.  It can be mood altering to introduce different colours into, for example, your soft furnishings eg putting a yellow throw on your furniture to usher energy and empowerment.  Contrasting the strategic planning for the beginning of the week to the relaxing and re-energising end of the week through the colours that we use, can give a structure, aiding the development of healthy habits.

How can you use yellow in your life to change the way you feel?
