These are fantasy notebook covers.
The text is all filched from my notebooks, appointments, colour specs etc. I loved Basquiat’s early Warhol collaborations. But what did Andy think when he saw a nice logo he’d drawn covered in hip street language?
“Er, very nice…you’ve actually drawn over everything…
...but...
...that’s...
...fine.”
Mad Skills is made up from stuff I was doing at the time; debris from a book cover and landscapes that didn't make the light of day, and a bit of Degenerate Art that inspired me to make a series of Polynesian figures to have massively useless occupations that the late, great David Graeber might have approved of.
Printed on heavy 315gsm etching paper.
