I've been itching to break out and explore printmaking for some (other) favourite bands of mine... and when Radiohead announced their first Colorado performance in nearly nine years, I was eager to start toying with some ideas.
Rex Membra (latin for king of limbs) is my interpretation of the sovereign timber... a translation from the king of dinosaurs. Lauding the big-bellied oak tree of the Savernake Forest (Wiltshire), I played with the annual rings and tied-in the rex-rooted limbs. [Over the course of the creative phases, I alternated spinning The King of Limbs and T-Rex's The Slider on my turntable, to get just the right inspiration.]
Rex Membra is a limited edition screen print run of 100 on archival 100lb Cougar opaque white paper (24" x 18"), all signed and numbered. Please contact me if you are interested in pre-ordering a print... I'll take requests for numbers on a first come-first serve basis, and will begin shipping orders later this week. Price is $35 including shipping/handling, reinforced postertube, etc. to anywhere in the US/Canada.
