A Nice Pile of Crap – Hand-Pulled Screen Print

A Nice Pile of Crap is a five-layer, CMYK-based screen print made from a collage of rubbish collected from the streets of Dalston. Flowers and foliage sit alongside discarded packaging and crumpled fragments against a pale pink background. Close up, the halftone dots reveal how the layered inks build the image.

One of my early prints, with just one left.

The Inspiration

I collected rubbish from the streets of Dalston and used it to build the original collage. The composition brings discarded everyday materials together with flowers and leaves, treating the pile as a still life. It is an early example of my work with collage and layered screen printing.

Perfect for

Collectors interested in my early work, found-object collage and unconventional still life, or anyone with a connection to Dalston.
