Passingwords finds its source in books, magazines, comics and paper ephemera as well as television recordings circa. 1960's up until present. The significance of these images to wotadot are related to memory and deconstructed, they represent pieces of a coded message.

Passingwords aims to communicate fragmented stories, memories and the images are intended to be seen as messages, stories or words that were said and forgotten and through the process of over layered drawing these layers then represent the time that passes and the message that loses its original meaning and finds new coded and often apocalyptic themes.






Passingwords... is inkjet printed on 100gsm drawing paper previously painted with ink and bleached, in a numbered edition of 12 copies, concertina bound. The front and back covers are made of cardboard painted with black and white gloss paint, respectively. Each book comes inside a plastic sleeve, numbered and signed.
6 pages, A4 (210 x 297 mm)

London, October 2008
