| Synopsis: |
I began collecting the daily news in the summer of 1976, photographing random streams of television from a small black and white monitor and laying out sequential issues the Evening News, Sun and Daily Mirror, the covers pasted up on 6'x4' panels. The next step was to break down the material in fragments of headlines, fitted in square-based xerox composites. The overall effect resembled a great coarse flow of unmetered experience. To filter the dominance of grey and black, in 1979 I began to trace bits of newsprint, introducing colour paper collages with the advent of the Falklands War in 1982. The procedure became more selective; little portraits drawn from the business pages reflected the preoccupation with money, power and connections. Women usually featured as a source of scandal or decoration. The first phase concluded in 1986 when I turned to abstract constructions (Signals 1986-96). World Score Dream updated the series with collages made in May 2005. The tracings are light and elusive, reading slant-wise across the pattern of images, text and borders, in a form of blind drawing that produces unpredictable results. |
