In her thesis, The Time of Colour, Dos Santos presents her research on the blue pigmentation of the Clitoria ternatea flower, a central element in her work. Dos Santos encourages viewers to observe the "performative" qualities of the pigment, which "fades and opens a sensitive space for reflection on transformation and impermanence", she tells The Art Newspaper. The forthcoming residency will provide Dos Santos with opportunity to further her botanical studies and explore new technologies that can contribute to her investigations of the flower.
