Sounds From The Other City

Sounds From The Other City, Moderate Studio journal, 2012

Painting and pasting up a poster for Sounds From The Other City, the Salford festival that takes over Chapel Street for the May bank holiday, done at night with my friend Fraser. A big circular design going up on a brick wall by torchlight, the two of us on ladders getting it flat before it dried.

Half the work of a poster like this is the putting up. Out in the dark on a wall in Salford, making the thing exist at the size it was meant to be seen, for a festival that has always been about the city showing itself off for a day.

Part of the Islington Mill case study.
