Footnote
Note: In several works, Reeves has given black, white and grey a seasonal reference. In this piece, created for a mixed show designed to celebrate allotment plots, Reeves has here divided the surface of his collage into a strongly abstract, rectangular ground plan. Plots in winter are generally rather monochrome before the ice melts and fresh seeds are sown.
