What does it say?
Favourite among the questions I get asked when people see my work is:
“Who is it?”
To which I usually answer: “Pauline,” as the name of the model is not really relevant, unless it’s a portrait.
Next question is invariably:
“What does it say?”
I use all sorts of text in my pictures, my father’s university notes, old postcards, the odd bit of Beckett perhaps and very often slices of Shakespeare’s prologue to Henry V, which I consider one of his finest pieces.
