Anger Is An Energy…

I’ve done a small series of art on postcards for an exhibition coming up soon. I cut this little lino block a while back, inspired by lyrics from the song “Rise” by the band Public Image Ltd. “Anger Is An Energy” is also the title of John Lydon‘s autobiography. I was in a dark place at the time, it was the pandemic and, hey, I don’t need an excuse to be angry. Anger is a good energy for getting things done.

I cut the block from traditional brown lino, and printed it onto recycled confectionary foils using the chine collé method, with Cranfield Caligo Safewash relief ink in black.
