This canvas print is based on an original mixed-media artwork created using plastic and paint on wood. The composition combines a simplified human figure with graphic symbols and bold colour contrasts. The visual language draws on the familiar signs of games and systems—X and O, lines, and repeated marks—suggesting ideas of rules, positions, and the ways individuals move within structured environments. The figure appears both playful and constrained, inviting viewers to reflect on how identity and agency exist within larger patterns. The artwork is reproduced on a durable poly-cotton blend canvas with a soft matte-satin finish. Printed using water-based HP Latex inks, the colours remain vibrant and long-lasting, with added UV protection. The canvas is stretched over a solid 4 cm deep wooden frame made from responsibly sourced timber, creating a ready-to-hang piece that brings the character of the original artwork into your space. • Poly-cotton blend canvas with a matte/satin finish. Scratch, crack, and warp resistant. • Vibrant, long-lasting colours with water-based HP Latex inks and UV protection. • Solid wooden frame from renewable sources, 4 cm deep.
A small note about this shop.
Most of my work exists as jewellery, exhibitions, writing and curatorial projects. The prints you find here come from a different part of my practice: drawing, collage, collecting images and making marks. If you visit the Sketchbook section of this website, you'll see that these activities are not separate from my work but are often where ideas first begin.
For a long time, these drawings and experiments remained in sketchbooks, folders and studio drawers. Then I came across a printing company whose attention to quality matched my own values. Their fine art papers, canvas prints and beautifully crafted Italian handmade frames convinced me that these works could exist beyond the page without losing their character.
There is also a practical reason for this shop. Sales help support my artistic and curatorial practice, allowing me to continue making work, organising projects, writing, researching and collaborating with others.
So, in a way, this shop is both a small extension of my studio and a way of helping sustain everything else that happens within it.
Thank you for being here.
