Live Laugh Love: The Dance of Death
'Live Laugh Love: The Dance of Death'
600mm x 600mm
Single layer screen print onto 270gsm Vellum White paper by G.F Smith
Signed and numbered limited edition of 25
I've reclaimed one of the most sickening bits of typographic art from the 2010s by reimagining it as a kind of Momento Mori. This is Live Laugh Love for people with a sense of irony, for people who accept that as much as we need cheesy motivational slogans to get out of bed in the morning we're all going to die one day so lets enjoy ourselves.
Inspired by the medieval Dances of Death every letter of my Live Laugh Love is accompanied by a allegorical figure of death dragging everyone from the Pope to an innocent child off to the grave. It works as kind of comic strip that can be read from left to right top to bottom starting with the temptation of Adam and ending with a lonely skeleton who has lost their lover.
Prints are posted rolled in a reinforced cardboard tube
Postage is via Royal Mail First Class Tracked and Signed for UK orders
For International orders it is via Royal Mail International Tracked
