Allotment: Dots and Boxes

In this ongoing series of works the  game Dots and Boxes is played with a particular group of artists and other contributors, who share concerns in the general area of the Concrete.  These are then made into animations including each move in the game and a painting, in oil on paper, of the final composition.

While the colours in these Dots and Boxes games are determined by the contributors' choice from a particular range of paints, Dots and Boxes works have also been made employing colours specific to a particular context, such as the examples below.
