Plating something up for Archipelago Works screen print show!

 

A brand new piece for the upcoming exhibition at Archipelago Works (APG), Sheffield. After producing my first screen print on a t-shirt this summer this is another first for me to have work as a limited edition screen print. The show is 3 C's Creatures, Characters and Communication - 3 Cs in Graphic art - A Group Exhibition of Original Screen Prints.

The idea for the work stemmed from the appeal of displays in the home, an extension of personality through arrangements like this, visual enjoyment over practicality, eclectic design paired with mismatched characters. Some of these characters have a tendency to reappear in my work such as the caravan and flamingo - absolutely personal and ridiculous favourites which I cannot always justify. I would now like to make these plates happen. Especially caravan plate to match my caravan t-shirt.

3 C's group exhibition opening this Friday 23 September at APG! Preview evening 6 - 9pm, all welcome! Also see work by:

Ian Stevenson // Russell Maurice // James Nash // Sarah Abbott // Matt Sewell // David Litchfield // Jane Faram // Bob Milner // Steve White // Malarky // Holly Wales // AustinVonNew // Neasden Control Centre // 45 RPM
