DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Michelangelo Antonioni → Italy

Composed meticulously balanced color palettes in 'Red Desert' and 'Blow-Up' where chromatic fields convey psychological states and modern alienation.

Wong Kar-wai → Hong Kong

Constructs dreamlike narratives through vibrant, oversaturated color fields in films like 'In the Mood for Love' where color expresses emotion beyond dialogue.
