Notes

"This print is a proof and is the first one I made with no edges. It was very much about social doumentation of place, trying to use the traditional English techniques of printmaking in a more immediate way. I also incorporated graffiti and colour and texts from the time such as "I'm not a Londoner - I live here" and "London Transients" ".
