Unknown

Who's That?

Memories of an Unknown boy is inspired by a scrapbook found in a local charity shop. Its pages resonated with my own collage creations, prompting me to incorporate them as the foundation for this piece. The initial collector will be granted the two specific pages integrated into the artwork, with comprehensive details inscribed in the TransientLab Story. Furthermore, the collector has the opportunity to contribute and expand upon this narrative within the TransientLab Story.

This artwork is part of Superchief's collage realm, 'Junk Drawer,' and was showcased at The Oculus in New York on February 1, 2024.

In October last year, I started working on a collection for Marfa—having never been there and no reference material. As a collage artist, that’s a problem.

Then, in a wild coincidence, Hugo from @trygamma messaged me about a project they were doing for Marfa. They were handing out disposable cameras there. Would I be interested in working with the images?

Hell yeah. When the stars align, you say yes.

What started as 20 images turned into a generative collection of 432. The process evolved as I figured out how to make it work.

‘Colour Scapes’ is a collection that weaves together the nostalgia of vintage postcards and imagined landscapes, transformed through vibrant, abstract sculptures of colour. 

While not directly influenced by Ellsworth Kelly, his postcard series was later suggested as a reference point, aligning with the collection’s exploration of form, simplicity, and colour.

"Legs eleven" is a popular phrase used in British bingo to refer to the number 11. The phrase originates from the visual resemblance of the number 11 to a pair of legs standing together. When the number 11 is called in bingo, the caller may say "legs eleven" to add a bit of fun and rhythm to the game. The phrase has become a bit of a cultural reference in the UK, sometimes used more broadly to evoke the image of slender legs or as a playful expression in other contexts.
