MaPk nAbCoH
1989-99.
Random multiple overprints in black, red and blue onto unused billboard poster paper.
An intense visual barrage of overlaid images, textures and graphics-you can literally
feel the build-up of photocopier toner.
When I make these books, I have a pile of paper, and a stack of black and white
collage originals and just keep putting the paer through the photocopier over and
over again, overprinting until the depth and build-up of imagery gets interesting.
Continuous production since 1989 Each copy unique.
21x15cm,24pgs
(750+ paperback copies 15 Hardback)
FLOOR AT 34
1988 When I lived at 34 Cotesbach Road, I used sheets of billboard posters
( also used for MaPk nABCoH ) as a floorcovering, the tough paper wore
through at points and picked up the wood grain from the floorboards below,
when I moved house I used the paper to made an edition of 34 books, which
were given to people who had visited or stayed at the house and contributed
to the books by walking on the floor !

beautiful dense red photocopy.
