The works are screen prints, which respond to the philosophical writings of Walter Benjamen’s The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction and Theodore Adorno’s The Culture Industry. The absurd almost randomchildish imagery takes the central role in the composition,while the historical object remains secondary and decorative.
