THEME
A strong identifying sign which shapes your identity and reveals it: RED. Strong, bright and passionate. Meaningful and powerful.
The colour of heart and blood. The colour of the sunset, of the fire. Of glamorous lipsticks and sweetest fruits.
Red is the coulour of sacrifice, danger, and passion. The colour of love.
We want you to submit pictures in which the colour RED is the protagonist.
Show the RED in your life.
Paint it RED. Tag it RED.
