When Olivier visited Yanny in her studio in preparation of her show Field Work in early 2008, the artist had just started to work on Yellow Flag (image 1). The gallerist asked the artist to keep a visual record of the work from then on. The 6 resulting images shown here featured in the exhibition catalogue to illustrate the 'layering' involved in creating that type of work.
