Having praised Mark Earl’s book, Herd, I thought it only right to check out his blog. Lucky I did too.
The image above is of my oyster card wallet… well, not mine but one like it. I always wondered who the artist was, as it was given away for free at random by TFL and the Arts Council (randomly allocating one artist over another). Mark talks about the power of the backstory in reference to Tim Etchells‘ other works (see below) but I’ve always loved my oyster wallet (shell?) because of the non-story that it provides me with on long boring journeys.
Tim Etchells
