I am using newspaper as my main medium. Newspaper is dated. It carries the issues of the day. Or what the newspaper publisher deems to be the issues of the day. I like the fact that it is not a blank canvass. It is an immediate subtext. Quite literally. 2011 has been a year of protest and civil unrest. Europe is evolving from a social democracy into an oligarchy. Democracy and democratic values are eroded with every passing day.The newspaper loses the ordinary man in columns of economic jargon and stories of how we got here.A lot of it fiction.I like the idea of taking the shit they hand down, painting some truth on it, and putting it back up.
