Installing 'Pulling posters from history' , Newtown Art Seat, 1 September 2017
During September - November 2017, I will continue to document local histories and research poster makers of Sydney's Inner West and Western suburbs. If you have pulled your punches or know someone who has - please get in touch! Project instagram: @pullyourpunches
Thanks to the team at Inner West Council, Tom Helliwell (photographer), Nick & the installation team at Signwave Newtown.

Development of Pulling posters from history, for the Newtown Art Seat
Developing the new installation work for the Newtown Art Seat. I'm really interested to uncover more Sydney poster makers, posters and stories. The work has been developed using a combination of letterpress and Letraset processes. The mini poster will be published at the completion of the installation period - stay tuned! If you have pulled your punches in the Inner West, Sydney - I want to hear from you - please get in touch!
The Newtown Art Seat presents innovative contemporary art to the local community and provides artists and community groups with the opportunity to exhibit in public space for the purpose of experimental, non-commercial artistic outcomes.

Getting familiar with the new studio ... after a trip to the incredible Northwest Graphic Supplies to pic up some new Letraset. Some warm-up prints to test exposure times/emulsion and screen mesh counts. #myfirstbusinesscard
