NUCLEAR MUSEUM

I was quoted in this article about two of my anti-Trident posters being featured in the National Museum of the Royal Navy’s new permanent exhibition about nuclear weapons. Read it here. “Museums are an important record of the peaks and troughs of human civilisation. I hope this exhibition is housed deep enough to survive the Royal Navy’s plan to destroy civilisation entirely if Britain loses a war.” “Nuclear bombs are suicide bombs – it is impossible to use these weapons without also killing ourselves. They are an expression of a genocidal and suicidal, not to mention very expensive, form of national insanity.” Here’s the two posters that are in the collection:

THANK YOU

Giant thanks to everyone who supported my work this year, esp this #toriesout election poster project, but also if you bought any of my work or backed me on Patreon etc – it meant I could keep making stuff & plan ahead to make more. That means everything to me, thank u you lovely bastards. More thanks of course to Special Patrol Group for putting up so many of these and other poster designs I done. And everyone else who chipped in, helped distribute, and put up the posters and leaflets. It was a very fucking exciting and humbling thing to have been a part of. Onwards!

REAL FAKE OYSTER CARD

Waste everyone’s time, including your own, with this instantly unconvincing Fake Oyster Card sticker kit. Stick it over your real Oyster card so it looks like a fake Oyster card, even though it still works like a real Oyster card. There you have it. Why would you do this? Don’t ask me. You bought it. From here, remember?

LONDON EXHIBITION

Photos from my solo exhibition at my gallery/studio WAR in south east London. Thanks to Tom Straughan for his very generous assistance installing the show. No way I’d have been able to display the Shell ‘Emissions Reduction Technology’ installation without his help. The show ends Sunday 3rd Dec, open every day 11am-7pm. If you’re interested in buying any of the work in the show, you can contact me here.

SHANGRILART @ THE OTHER ART FAIR

Last weekend I hammered a lot of my work onto the walls of The Other Art Fair as part of the ShangriART area, (a new outsider-art print off-shoot of Shangrila, Glastonbury). Enormous thanks to Justin Carroll and Hannah Logic for helping so much with the set up and tear down, and thanks too to ShangriART crew and The Other Art Fair for getting me involved. I was also able to finish a sculpture I’d been working on for the last month or so, Golf Cart One. I’ll have some better photos of it up soon, once I finish adding a few more details. More photos after the jump.

THE WORLD TRANSFORMED 2017

I made this installation for The World Transformed 2017, a politics and arts festival/conference held by Momentum and related groups at the same time as the Labour party conference. This year it is in Brighton and ends on Tuesday. More photos after the jump! After finishing the installation I ran into this guy in the street. I also had some of my other anti-Tory election work on display at Fabrica. This one I drew while on the Positive Propaganda artist residency. All these are still available to download from toriesout.co.uk
