Thanks Michael. An early Christmas present. Look forward to seeing what it is

Remember, like I mentioned earlier, no trash talking!

Happy Holidays forum members. Here is the piece that I was giving away a few weeks ago. Our lucky winner was Manty. It will be Mantys decision whether he wants this or one of my Princess Diana prints.

About this piece. Ive had this concept going for a while. Instead of a traditional portrait, I wanted to see myself by what I consume. This bag is one week of my trash. It is a snapshot of what keeps me going. From food (just the packaging), to work, to bills, its all there. I hope to continue this as a series. I've tried my hardest to keep all the my leftovers. As for the production side of this piece, it was a challenge. Aside of keeping track of the trash, I had to always request double of any food related items, like McDonalds. Whenever I got food, I had them give me a complete set of packaging, to make sure everything was clean, and food free. Im still working on how to show packaging from store bought stuff like meat. One of the local stores said they might help. Size is about 18x14x14cm.

Thanks again to the forum, its members and their continued support.
If anyone is interested in future self portraits, drop me a line.

Self Portrait


Close up of card

thats a polite way to say things.

I also give my trash away....once a fortnight these strange blokes in a big grey van are always happy to take it.........hope they aren't ebaying my stuff??

The only way you can see the contents is to own the piece! The few people I showed it to at work, thought I was on crack. They did find it interesting to hold it and look into it. Its kind of engaging to look at it. I kind of like the idea of laying it out. I might run with that, and do a collage on canvas. It I do it, Ill give you some of the credit.

Ahhhhh, the penny drops! I thought you were printing editioned photo's of the bag, not the actual bag itself Silly me. But there's another, more affordable/accessible way to consider moving forward in this project Cheers ;D

- class...i know artists are supposed to "think outside of the box", but to be fair i think this one needs to be crated, burned, urned then scattered
