AND THEY ALL CHARGED IN LIKE MALEE BULLS: BLOCKMOUNT SCREEN PRINT SERIES.

 

 

 

Block Mount Screen Print. 2004

This is one of a series of six. The others are: ‘Glomessh Monster’; ‘Dolly’;

‘Fag ‘N Wine’; ‘The Four Oddballs’; and  ‘ Cardigan Coat’. This screenprint

is about the tests that uni teachers always play on their students to get them confused and to think harder.
Two particular teachers suggested me to do different instructions:

One was to make sure there was order and no ring ins for the exhibitions

and that  all of the works had to be connected in some way to each other. The other teacher told me to not worry about anything and to

do anything I liked.  I listened to my gut, and put everything into a connection.

I drew this picture as it was about the instructions, and it connected other sculptures I wanted to put into the exhibition.

Now all was connected. The ‘charging in like malee bulls’ was about other teachers

all having their say about what I should be doing.

When printing on high quality thick, refined rice paper, the

results are quite beautiful, producing a satin like sheen.
