The London Underground

Another short series of miniature hand-built collages. The London Underground... or 'The Ticket Collection'. The collages aim to explore the notion of perceived, but unintentional narratives. A short sketchbook exercise.

Digital Collage - Swiss graphics influences

Currently working on a series of digital collages of 'cityscapes',  based on Bristol, Bath and London. These explore composition, juxtaposition and colour palettes suggested by Swiss graphics styles of the 1950's. The main battle here was dealing with the inconsistencies of digital print. Getting screen, stock and printer profiles set in order to print what is seen on screen is a nightmare! The images you see here are somewhat lighter that I would prefer on screen.... but, printed out correctly. I know... I should have duplicated files and adjusted a set for screen too! The set here based on Bristol... more to follow. All prints are A3

Thanks for further responses - Recession

My thanks to Kareem Rizk for his recent response to the end of year project. Kareem managed to fit this in around his move to Europe - so my appreciation to him for the effort and interest in my work. His submitted piece - 'Tall tales' - below. Check out Kareem's work at: http://www.kareemrizk.com/

Thanks also to Rob Kettell for his response to and interest in the project and my on-going work. I am hoping that Rob might also provide a foreword to the printed piece for the show. His submission below based on a quote by WH Auden.

More work for the show - Recession etc.

Thanks to Caroline Tomlinson for the great piece of work above for the course end of year show piece. My apologies to Caroline for the confusion of unanswered email conversations recently... got there in the end!
