Signs of Life: Useful Signs For The General Public

****

Very witty satire 7 Jun 2006

This is a little book of photographs, whose only text is to be found within the photographs themselves. There is no explanation offered for the project, which is described only as "thoughts" on the back cover.

What the book does, in truth, is very archly subvert and satirise the signs with which we surround ourselves every day, and by which we measure ourselves. It ranges from the surreal to the plan offensive, but there are many, many moments of sublime humour.

In all, very very funny. Your guests will love you for it.
