Lockdown

Like millions of others, during Covid Lockdowns, I have been forced to look at my immediate surroundings and routines with much more care. The Lockdown series consists of composite images reflecting my world at home or in my mind.  Each image has 121 (11x11) photographs which have been manipulated: rotated, flipped recoloured. The main image on this page is Composition 462 – "Corona Virus".  It is a man wearing face mask, glasses and gloves.  He is holding a gardening fork and paintbrush. It's semaphore code (usually using flags). If you read the first column vertically, it says C - O - R - O - N - A - V - I - R - U - S. If you read the first row horizontally it says C - A - N - N - O - T - S - L - E - E - P. Second row reads O - V - E - R - A - N - X - I - O - U - S . . . etc. All horizontal lines say something. Actual print is 40x40 inches (can be larger) on Dibond (a very rigid, but light compound material composed of plastic and aluminium). Limited edition of 11 in this size.
