Here’s the final shot of the piece in Sodtheditch (sic). I’m told by the good people at Mutate Britain that it is alive and well and kissing the clouds from the rooftops. Notice the cans on the floor, working on the floor was my favourite moment, together with the mathematical ‘overlay’ effect, not sure what to call these yet.

I visited the site and made a few 360’s of the areas… guess where i’m planning to paint? Read more »
