john squire, ddd2a, 2004, oil on canvas, 44" x 82"
DDD2a, was used as the main promotional artwork for Squire's first ever Art Exhibition (February 2004), and it is a modern adaption of his piece Double Dorsal Doppelganger One which of course was used for the classic 'Fools Gold'/'What The World Is Waiting For' single (November 1989).
"I started these just before agreeing to the exhibition. One of the the things I took from the Pollock experience was the liberating feeling of detaching yourself; having the control and responsibility taken away. Without wanting to sound too pretentious, it was almost like something else was getting involved. I was looking for a way to harness that, but escape from Action Painting. I worked on the theory that a continuous line was the thing to try and strive for, and any mistakes and overlaps should be accommodated." (Speaking on John Squire Art.com - February 2004).
