Uninhibited by, yet very aware of, the achievements of the past and the rise of other media, Innes uses the language of the monochrome, an established format of abstract painting since the 1960s. In Untitled, Innes uses the simplest of materials to create an image which is closer to conceptual work than abstraction, so that intellect and intuition are powerfully combined. Here he chooses a middle ground between the spare beauty of a minimal aesthetic and the gestural panache of abstraction.
