The Topiary Zoo

Saturday, October 4th, 2008

Two new screen prints for the exhibition in Swansea next week inspired by animals created from shrubs in a park in Mumbai – and the contrast with the lively wildlife such as jackdaws and chipmunks. The prints are available from The Old Sweet Shop’s online shop.

Bowerbird print series

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Here’s a new set of screenprints ready for the show ‘A Pair of Drawers’ with my sister Alison Porter. The prints are inspired by the resident bowerbird at Melbourne Museum, and show the variety of blue things bowerbirds like to collect – pen lids, bottle tops, clothes pegs, toy helicopters…in non-urban areas they collect snail shells and feathers instead. 

‘A Pair of Drawers’ is at The Brunswick, 3 Duke Street, Swansea SA1 4HS, October 8 – November 22, 11.30am to 11pm daily.
