“Coming down into the office I saw the spread of twelve paintings in delirious ad hoc display around the long table. There could not have been a better method for exhibiting this series. Individual sheets lay among random papers, books, objects rescued from store, humming laptop, charts and folders […] I had to ask: ‘Who did these? Where did they come from?’ The serial composition, the shapes, the colour: mesmerizing. A major discovery?”
