Response to the visual as a complex of knowing and distortion into language makes a demand on all participants, writer, reader. Here in This is red offers a density of seeing made possible through sequential and continually framed perception and frail or desperate engagement. It gives the potential which has been realised to record internal apprehension and near narrative reading. This is red holds attention to digital image and its considerable blur – its energetic ambiguity and concreteness of understanding. The apprehension has been graphically drawn through – that is thought through – providing the reader with promise and clarity; an apprehension addressed as colour and tone addressed to "you" as singular and as collective figure at once – shifts from one to the other. - Allen Fisher
