The dot making process started in 1992 when I visited Zimbabwe and saw these Matopos cave paintings, one wall, 6 feet high and 20 feet long covered in yellow, red and blue dots, made with a sharpened twig and pigments, made by someone who didn't go on the hunt, made when there was music. It's an abstract wall, early abstraction, nothing concrete, translating a state of mind into something visual through a repetitive dot making process.
Chris Ofili quoted in an interview with Kodwo Eshun, CHRIS OFILI, LONDON, 1998
