David Barret argues that Hadrian Piggott's work "examines the collective psychological of society through the use of an everyday material: soap. Pigott is preoccupied by the paradox of the Western consumerist obsession with cleanliness, which yet leads to the increasing use of detergents that are far more toxic than bodily grime could ever be." (David Barret in: Young British artists from the Saatchi Collection, Sensation, London 1997, p. 205)
