STATEMENT
I've got a BA degree in Graphic Design and Illustration, which I took
at StMartins College in London. I'm obsessed with popculture, celebrity,
seediness and dirt. My work often involves the contradiction between glamour
and darkness. My work is deeply personal, and the series of "Star-prostitutes"
came about after I had been on the Richard And Judy show. A little revenge
if you like.. I like to get involved in many different projects, and some
of my illustrations are printed onto clothes which I sell in CoCo DeMer
and Pineal Eye. The starprossies-series are among the prints on garment,
and there's a fine line between performance art and fashion there - because
the mobile number on it is actually mine! I get a perverse kind of thrill
out of thinking that one day the phone will ring, and someone will
whisper down the phone: "Margaret?"
