Not an accountant

Description

Collage on museum stretch canvas 6 x 6 x 1"

Vintage receipts and letters, acetate transparency of a vintage engraved portrait of Byron, scraps of Byron's poetry, acetate circuit board inlay from a cannibalized computer keyboard, marker pens, red dots punched out of the spine of an old bookkeeping ledger.

Inspired by a particularly irritating ad for a financial investment company on radio at the moment - the tagline of which is "Emotion writes poetry. Reason writes cheques."
In a snooty tone which implies that we all know which is preferable.

Very nice, I thought it was a biscuit box ! We have in France those biscuits called 'the financiers' which go very well with tea...

I can sense an 'Audrey Smith influence in the red dots... ah, ah !
