Secret 7s,
NOW Gallery, London.
Artwork created for The Specials 'We Sell Hope' 7" vinyl sleeve as part of the Secret 7” auction, aiming to raise funds for War Child UK. Secret 7” takes 7 tracks from 7 musicians and presses each one 100 times onto 7” vinyl. This artwork featured on 1 of the 700 unique sleeves that was exhibited at NOW Gallery in London.
“This abstract collage draws inspiration from the interplay of opposites found in the song’s lyrics and The Specials’ iconic black and white checkers. Dark skies and sunrises symbolise resilience and optimism, while disjointed and warped elements come together to connect, balance, and unify as one. It aims to reflect the importance of caring for each other, finding beauty in chaos, and highlighting the transformative power of hope.”
