URBAN SERIES
This is a similar in theme to my landscapes series, but is more about life in the big city. Whether the focus is on transportation or overcrowding, this series deals with the issues of living in urban areas!
I still appropriate old quotes and re-invent the context to make topical artwork. I mimic advertising iconography from pre-1950, to establishes a ‘vintage’ visual look - as a reminder of ‘better days’ and this helps my work to remain accessible. I hope that my work entertains but also challenges people to re-assess their opinions about our values, our traditions and how we treat our environment.
10% of the proceeds from the sales of this series is also donated to the David Suzuki Foundation!
