Joanne Tatham and Tom O'Sulivan made me think...

During their first lecture touching collaborative, participative and public art, I wasn't particularly moved. It took me a little while to think about all that had been said. Recently, things just went "tilt". They had a great example of public art: the pyramid that was destroyed and used as a hide. Apart from being my favourite piece of theirs.

The public art has a very important role to play in my project of making comic books more accessible. I have spray painted a small on case comic. The idea behind it is to bring the comic book through a new medium accessible freely to all those passing in front of it. The link with Tom and Joanne's work is that readers could claim the comic as theirs and hopefully add their own touch to the spray painting.
