Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork    

 

These four works, made specifically for the AOAP Winter auction, are in keeping with my regular practice of reappropriating found materials in order to make something new. By reusing, reassembling, recombining, erasing, rephrasing, redacting, adding and subtracting, I am resuscitating long forgotten imagery and bringing it back to life in different forms. 

PLEASE DO NOT BID ON ARTWORK IN OUR ART ON A POSTCARD AUCTIONS IF YOU INTEND ON SELLING THE ARTWORK AFTER YOU HAVE PURCHASED IT. THIS AUCTION HAS BEEN ORGANISED FOR CHARITY AND ALL ARTWORKS HAVE BEEN GENEROUSLY DONATED BY THE ARTISTS TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE HEPATITIS C TRUST. WHEN THE WORK PRODUCED FOR THE CHARITY IS SOLD ON THE SECONDARY MARKET IT DAMAGES OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ARTIST AND PREVENTS US FROM FUNDRAISING.
