Egglestons work is highly saturated with colour, which makes your eyes run all over the page. There is almost no one focal point, only the colour itself. Every last bit is rich and increasingly infused. It is very rich, and could almost make you feel sick from the intensity of it all. However, the is almost a polaroid feel to the work, it is almost grainy in appearance a slight bit of noise to the work. I want to bring this saturation into my work more, it almost puts you over the tipping edge, like things are just too much when you see it. It again places you into another world, one that we are not familiar with, placing you on the boarder of recognition and familiarity.
