Elements of pop culture are remixed. From a series of vintage screenprints in pop art style with silver screen printing and black oil paint on randomly selected vintage record covers. Words and typography set the stage. They interact with the portrait and the mythical background made of fragments from the original record cover... Thoughts and memories awaken. Framed in a black wooden shadow gap frame.
A tribute to PIL (Public Image Limited) on vintage record covers. The words 'THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG' are not just a provocative message but also a statement about modern relationships and emotions. Here, elements of pop culture are remixed – iconic indie songs from the early '80s are brought back to life with song titles in black oil paint. Framed in a black wooden shadow gap frame.
