“The recent work of Dan Mills, in which the artist has used maps and charts evocative of the classroom as the foundation for his own artistic messages, seems particularly engaged with this balancing act with history. Mills also evokes the secret childhood urge to put one’s own images on the classroom wall, to add graffitti to the maps and charts, to cease to take the passive role in education. But unlike Clio, his crayons never manage to completely cross out the painful truths of the originals.”
—Jeff Abell, “Please Cross Out the Correct Response"
