uh-oh card . 2011

i had a moment of randomness yesterday, having the urge to produce something fast & effective, and totally random! i pulled out my sketchbook (while listening to beyonce's hit 'single ladies') and started sketching what is now some of the most iconic choreography in a music video. using that as my source of inspiration, i moved on to create something that looked more like a mark, or a printing error, combining figurative, gestural and graphic forms to create a minimal style visual. the final drawing was then photocopied on sugar paper, to give the final print a hand-crafted look and make each one unique from the next. the final prints/cards are a5 in size, signed, and an edition of 40. let me know if you'd like one...
