Double Monochromesconsiders the critical conditions under which a monochrome painting can be made. All the works present large fields of uniform and unbroken hue, aligning with a general understanding of a monochromatic work. Yet each field has various degrees of light refraction: some present with a velvet-matte finish and others offer a high, almost industrial, gloss surface. The works share a similarity in composition, each contains two differentiated fields — a doubling of blacks, greys, or moments of colour — that occupy equal halves of the painting area. Colour also resides, on many of the works, as an expressive fringe and performs in a distinct, yet poetic, contrast to the double monochromatic fields.
