History and Nonsense (2022)
History and Nonsense is 1 of 7 original artworks from the series This Is The Sign You Have Been Waiting For - an installation of brown tourist signs commissioned by Norwich and Norfolk Festival 2022, for Norwich city centre.
The signs couple recognisable symbols from everyday tourism signage, with playful twists of language, which insert what feel like private messages into the official civic landscape. The signs seem to speak about new and long-standing relationships, the way places hold memories, and the human drive to connect over time and space.

3 church logos, 1 fairground logo.
Text reads: So much history and nonsense between us
DIMENSIONS:
520mm x 600mm
EDITIONS:
1 (plus 1 artist’s print)
Reduced price due to damage on reverse of sign from install/deinstall
