Solicited Collaboration Coloring Book

A collaborative and accessible original piece of art by Kaitlyn Tucek.

Rainbow Delirium is an attempt at a shared artistic experience. Each individual artwork - aka coloring book- reaches outward, seeking connection, collision, and a way to mark time alongside the collaborators. The book is an exact printed replica of one of Tucek’s sketchbooks, filled with graphite rainbow drawings. The rainbow motif emerges from Tucek’s practice of automatic drawing, where instinct and immediacy guide the work through a relinquishing of control. Each 30 page coloring book comes with two hand colored pages by Tucek, and a signed certificate of authenticity. In addition, collaborators are welcome to share their drawings with Tucek using a QR code provided.  Those drawings will be added to Tucek’s website to be shared with others (pending approval).  

Includes: 30 page coloring book with two hand colored pages by Kaitlyn Tucek, and a signed certificate of authenticity. 

Materials: 8.5 x 11” Softcover, craft paper cover, 30 off white pages, staple bound. Created with support from Earnest Paper.
