I Shout for The Fall! Pictures of Words by Mark E. Smith
Bury Art Museum [2018]
I was invited to produce a design to be exhibited at Bury Art Museum in conjunction with Design Manchester 18, where range of creative responses to words written by the eponymous Mark E Smith from The Fall. Designers and image makers invited to contribute include Build, Malcolm Garrett, Instruct, Lucy Holmes, Alan Kitching, Morag Myerscough, Spin, Swifty, Patrick Thomas and Tash Willcocks.
Each have been invited to create original artwork for the show based on a single line from Mark E Smith lyrics. As Smith was a resident of Prestwich, Bury for most of his life, it is fitting that the work be exhibited at Bury Art Museum.
"Became a recluse and bought a computer, Set it up in the home, Elusive big one, on the screen Saw the Holy Ghost, I swear On the screen, Where's the cursor?" Taken from the song Eat Y'self Fitter from the album Perverted by Language 1983.
