Band 1/2 Response 1
Admit 1 consists of one medium sized canvas painting, displaying a range of painting techniques from flat acrylic paint, to blending, hard-edged forms and some collage. It apparently presents a personal theme about life, and despite some simple metaphorical references to life being a gamble, the deeper meaning eludes the viewer. Attempts at representation are elementary and the drawing is laboured. The work does have some painterly areas but paint is applied quite inconsistently across the piece.
