READING BETWEEN THE LINES
Lady of Colour was what my Romanian students called me in the 90's at the beginning of my teaching career.
At that time I was teaching different art courses, including colour theory, at the Academy of Arts in Cluj.
I received the "title" from the game of words that my students liked.
When they talked about me in uninitiated circles, people thought I was black.
Doamna de Culoare m-au numit studenții mei din România în anii 90 la începuturile carierei mele didactice.
Predam în acea perioadă diferite cursuri de artă, inclusiv de teoria culorii, la Academia de Arte din Cluj.
"Titlul" l-am primit pentru jocul de cuvinte care le-a plăcut studenților mei.
Când vorbeau despre mine în cercuri neinițiate, lumea credea că sunt negresă.
Die Farbige nannten mich zu Beginn meiner Lehrerkarriere in den 90er Jahren meine rumänischen Studenten.
Ich unterrichtete zu dieser Zeit verschiedene Kunstkurse, einschließlich der Farbenlehre, an der Akademie der Künste in Cluj.
Den "Titel" erhielt ich für das Wortspiel, das meinen Studenten gefiel.
Wenn sie in nicht eingeweihten Kreisen über mich sprachen, dachten die Leute, ich sei schwarz.
