Catalogue Note

"Mathematically, with the spot paintings, I probably discovered the most fundamentally important thing in any kind of art. Which is the harmony of where colour can exist on its own, interacting with other colours in perfect format." (Damien Hirst in Damien Hirst & Gordon Burn, On the Way to Work, London 2001, p. 120)
