APPROVE
PR-CHECK-REVISION-017 successfully fixes the core weakness of the earlier checkmark painting. The image still reads instantly as an oversized approval symbol, but the heavy three-dimensional fold, doubled downturn, and vertical drips now make the check feel unstable, collapsing, and no longer fully trustworthy. That instability is visible without needing explanation, which brings the work much closer to the brief’s aim of failed confirmation and bureaucratic legitimacy breaking down. It remains sparse, wall-ready, meme-legible, and strong in documentation, while the darker shadow mass gives it more formal tension than the first version. The conceptual depth is still bounded by the simplicity of the icon format, but within this exhibition’s preferences it lands clearly above threshold. Recommendation: approve.
