Notes

Printed by Paul Kovesi for the Praxis Print Portfolio. "Praxis, the alternative art space in Fremantle, wanted to organize a fund-raiser and so asked four artists to make plates which would be printed by Paul Kovesi and then sold. My print recorded an incident in Florence when my sister said in a loud voice, right in the middle of the Piazza della Signoria "Do you realize these prints just cost us $18". It has been fairly widely exhibited".
