A View from Outside the Box

Only 3 minutes of your life to be captivated, enlightened, amused and provoked by the brilliant Nathan Gibbs.  For anyone who loves colour of all kinds, crayon or otherwise, this is for you.

“Crayola Monologues (2003) uses the crayon as a human metaphor for exploring color and identity in the United States. This animated video features crayons expressing how color hierarchies have shaped their lives. These crayons live in a world much like our own, complete with prejudice, class boundaries, social hierarchies and those who fall between the lines. Crayola Monologues also reveals the politics behind Crayola label changes, and gives a voice to the previously unheard perspective of crayons.”
