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.
