 Gavin Watkins - Collages

Food Equals Love

Picture
As any parent or grandparent will tell you, love is best showed by stuff their children/grandchildren with food. This collage is made from cuttings from vintage housekeeping magazines behind a copy of Robert Indiana's LOVE sculpture. Not for sale

Untitled 1

Picture
One of the iconic sights that greets visitors to Bristol is the long disused Royal Mail postal sorting office next to Temple Meads train station. This is my tribute printed on used envelopes. Not for sale

Untitled

Picture
To be honest, yes I do enjoy getting drunk. Am I in love with alcohol? That's harder to say. The heart is made out of MDF and covered in the labels of cider and wine bottles. Maybe it should be more of a love/hate relationship. Not for sale

Dad

Picture
This collage is about my father's upbringing - on which he has a lot to say. Not for sale

The Fags That Built Bristol

Picture
Bristol has various chapters to its dark history. The University of Bristol's Wills Memorial Building was paid for by the Wills family who made their money mainly from the sale of cigarettes. How many people died as a result of their products? How much profit did they make as people died as a result of their cigarettes? This is one of a series of three collages. £40 framed
