Literature & references:
Frances Lindsay, Robert Rooney and Gareth Sansom, 'Gareth Sansom - Paintings 1956-1986', exhibition catalogue, Melbourne University Gallery, 1986, illus p 38:
"Although works employing photo-documentation contributed so much of Sansom's artistic output during the latter half of the 1970s, he never abandoned painting. Welcome To My Mind I and II 1977 (cat.15 and 16) represent a fusion of his painting with his photo-montage and collage works." (op. cit. Lindsay, p 10)
