I am not going to put my name on Rothko, but I will put a Rothko on my work… and so I did on my project drawings for Dalston Art & Dance Youth Centre in 2011…

And so i am doing this year suggesting that my spiky pyramid tiles would be a perfect surface for a Rothko exhibition… Dont think they would keep paintings safe from guys like Vladimir Umanets, but at least if Vlad stepped on my teracotta tile, he would have to pay for its damage too!

Both, the terracota tile and the black iron powder/plaster tile, have derived from a 2d geometry composition exercise.
