Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is lighter, brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso to the backing board in several places and undulates slightly. There are artist’s compass holes to the centre of each spot and to each corner of the drawn square. Very close inspection in raking light reveals some light creases in isolated places.

Nicolas Serota: "When you did the first Spot Painting, did you see that as changing the world? Or changing your world?" Damien Hirst: "Yeah, the first [Spot Painting] absolutely changed my world. I’d looked at all this stuff like conceptual art, but it was the first time I had clarity in some way. The thing that was causing me the problem in painting was colour, finding a structure where I could lay it down, be in control of it rather than it controlling me. Once I’d done that, I didn’t really have problems with colour anymore" (Damien Hirst in conversation with Sir Nicholas Serota, in: Exh. Cat., London, Tate Modern, Damien Hirst, 2012, p. 92).
