My plan was to do a little summary of the different threads I've been working with, in order to be able to reflect and move forward..so I will continue.
Newspapers
A lot of my source material lately has come from newspapers. Articles and pictures often capture my imagination or spark up a reaction and its only recently through screenprinting that I've found a way to use them. So an ongoing little project of mine is to collect these snipets; and either run with the idea straight away by photocopying, printing and manipulating them, or simply file them for later.
There is something satisfying about this process. For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be able to respond to the politics of now in an immediate and personal way. The politcial artist is something which intrigues me. There is such a fine line though between commentary and propaganda.
