Lusitania

WARNING: CONTAINS ADULT CONTENT Lusitania is an artist’s bookwork reproduced from documents first assembled in 1977. The found images and texts were printed on a variety of A4-size papers and mirrored foil using multi-coloured screenprint, and various duplicating machine, photocopy and collage processes. The original documents were flood-damaged in 1994 and evidence of the resulting textures and coloration can be seen in this production. Exhibition history: a version of this piece, Lusitania Wallchart, was selected as part of the national Young Contemporaries exhibition in Manchester, United Kingdom, 1977.
