"Niall de Buitléar's drawings are equally understated. He catalogues
the aleatory traces of discarded chewing gum: an index of the body,
of personalised consumption returned to pavement anonymity.A parody,
perhaps, of attempts to decipher the pathological or prophetic from
the unwanted and unintended, or of current obsessions with forensic
investigations - the drama of the incriminating detail. De Buitléar
partakes of the seriality that is a key trope of many works here, but,
more so, he continues the Baudelairean avocation of (modern) poet-as-ragpicker:
a position far more in keeping with the character of his co-exhibitors
than that of de Certeau's 'tactician'."
