dispositionalism

Perhaps, colors are dispositions of physical-object properties to produce visual color states {dispositionalism}. Physical properties dispose perceiver to discriminate and generalize among colors. Colors have no mental qualities. Alternatively, physical-object properties dispose perceivers to experience what it is like to experience color physical properties. Mental qualities allow knowing qualitative similarities among colors. However, experienced colors do not look like dispositions.
