Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology, Oxford. A close up view of a small part of a massive collection of Greek black and brown ware in the department of antiquities – viewed at the point at which the audience overloads with information, the detail becomes a blur and they loose focus. A painting that explores ‘what we are able to see and retain as knowledge.’
