What color is oblivion?

Oblivion is black because…

• “Darkness, an absence of anything.”
• “Oblivion is something dark. Black is the darkest colour.”
• “Gonna be honest—I read that as obsidian at first, and it just feels like they have some correlation.”
• “It’s a deep, dark, damp void.”
• “It is the color of darkness and absolute nothingness,”
• “Both are nothing.”
• “Humans cannot see things in the dark. To be wholly forgotten means nobody can ‘see’ you anymore, even in their memories. So in a way, being lost to oblivion is like being lost in the darkness.”
• “Oblivion is like a void, and voids are black.”
• “The void.”
• “The darkness of the void. Empty space. Nothing. Oblivion is a synonym for all of these, which leads me to believe it is black.”
• “Oblivion is nothing. The void of being forgotten. Black is the emptiest color.”
• “Oblivion. Nothingness. The absence of what once was there. Black.”
• “Like space.”
• “I’s a void that never ends.”
• “Black is the color of being forgotten, being left in the dark.”
• “Sounds like obsidian.”

Oblivion is white because…

• “Oblivion is blank, empty.”
• “It reminds me of ‘drawing a blank,’ ‘blanked out,’ etc., and blank is white to me.”
• “White is empty.”
• “The album cover art for the song ‘Oblivion’ by Grimes has a white background.”
• “It’s a blank canvas without knowing what’s going on.”
• “In Portuguese we have the expression ‘me deu um branco,’ and that literally means ‘gave me a white.’”

Oblivion is purple because…

• “Oblivion remembers the taste of violet...”

Oblivion is grey because…

• “It’s blank, but more dull than white. Too light to be black, and hence grey.”
• “Oblivion is grey because it is forgetting and when you forget, you don’t know what’s happening.”
