Our Yellow Painting Project is a growing installation of canvases using photocopy transfers on playground paint, combining imagery and text from our personal archives in a DIY, anti-art aesthetic. The emergent visual patchwork is at turns confessional and sardonic, romantic and absurd, and aims to mimic an overstimulated culture set adrift in competing narratives. Reflections on Brexit and the migrant crisis are interspersed with diary entries and snippets of daytime TV dialogue. The project was born when the pair were given a drum of playground paint, and will continue until that drum runs out. To date, 40 paintings have been completed, using just one third of the paint. The installation has no fixed form, and is adjusted to each space we show in. Recent iterations have included a yellow trail through a community printmaking space and a condensed grid in a basement gallery.
