A piece of street art

A piece of street art, Moderate Studio journal, 2014

A piece of street art I made for Vera, put up at a street art jam at Wellington Mill studios. I made it from the wallpaper left over from my 3 Wise Monkeys install, offcuts of a hand-printed design given a second life as a marker for her, pasted up on a wall in the dark.

It felt like the right way to mark it. Not a plaque or a bench, but a printed thing put up out in the weather, the sort of quiet, temporary marker that suits a person more than stone does. Made at a jam with other people painting around me, and left to last as long as it lasted.
