Lock him up!

PLAYLIST

In the past decade a series of big issues have emerged to define our times; we see demonstrations erupting somewhere every day. Interestingly, in a digital age, graffiti and slogans on placards remain the expressive tools of choice in the public space.

Playlist uses the powerful relationship between text and image to explore this zeitgeist.

Each reductive word painting follows a vertical 4 line format and is restricted to 14 characters or less with no line exceeding 5 characters.

The project began in 2016 when, like many, I got hooked on the news cycle and could not let go. The resulting slogans have become a kind of playlist.
