The Inspiration:

This compelling mixed-media collage is directly inspired by the bold aesthetics and classic typography of retro themed postcards from the 1960s and 70s. The artist sought a method to combine the technical challenge of integrating intricate collage elements with bold typography, resulting in a unique visual aesthetic that is both challenging to create and screenprint. With this collection, that rewarding process has finally been achieved.

The Location:

This piece re-imagines the classic "Greetings from..." vintage postcard, serving as a vibrant and textured homage to the city of London's Columbia Road Flower Market. It anchors its composition on the large, block-lettered "COLUMBIA ROAD" title, where each segment opens into a different facet of the city's unique identity; these visual windows expertly merge the iconic rows of market stalls overflowing with colourful blooms with glimpses of the charming Victorian shopfronts and the lively crowds that define this beloved East London institution. The composition is elegantly framed by an explosion of wild, textured flowers and rendered in a sophisticated palette of distressed textures and faded colours, capturing Columbia Road's unique, spirited, and profoundly inviting character.

Perfect for:

Anyone who loves London's markets, unique East End atmosphere, and the joy of colourful floral displays. Ideal for spaces that appreciate technically complex printmaking and bold, nostalgia-driven graphic design.
