About the Item

Cubes 2022 70cm x 70cm Used & unique postage stamps Having spent over 15 years in Marketing, Surrey-based artist Charlie took the opportunity to leave the corporate world behind him to become a full-time dad to his two young boys. Creative at heart and intrigued by the story and journey behind each stamp, Charlie’s work celebrates the iconic image of Queen Elizabeth II through a series of pieces created with hundreds of used stamps – each one unique and battle-worn, with postage marks giving clues of their travels across the U.K. Created with stamps spanning over 70 years – from the 1960’s to the 2020’s – each artwork is a unique one-off.  The accumulated distance each artwork has travelled – is equivalent to five times the circumference of the world.  The iconic ‘Machin’ image of Queen Elizabeth II is the most reproduced image in the world and has been reproduced over 300 billion times.

  • Large Animal Wall Sculpture: 'Wormhole'
    By Gin Stone
    Located in New York, NY
    'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend as inspiration for pattern and color, as well as charts, iconography, and satellite imaging.' -Gin Stone...
