Everything and Again (Version I)

Screenprint
2011 (made)
Artist/Maker
Place of origin

Adam Bridgland (b 1979, UK) graduated from the RCA in 2006. He is a printmaker who specialises in motifs drawn from or inspired by British popular culture and graphic traditions, often playing on nostalgia and reminiscence. His work is witty and often involves a subtle interplay of word and image (showing the influence of precursors such as Ian Hamilton-Finlay). His ‘patch’ prints for example, take the format of stick-on or sew-on badges, especially those relating to music fan-dom or to achievement (as in the Boy Scouts). He cites Peter Blake’s ‘Self-Portrait with Badges’ as inspiration. Other prints refer to ‘paint by numbers’ kits and folk rhymes (‘Lullabies’) or to public information posters (‘The Circa Suite’).
