Ever rush past something, intending to photograph it later - but when you did return, it had disappeared? That happened in the V&A shop when I saw the "Exhibition in a Box" by Tom Martin. Fortunately it's on the shop's website, so I borrowed these luscious images
Each Box is unique, signed and numbered, and contains 20 mini prints.
Tom Martin studied printmaking at Anglia Polytechnic University and worked for several years at the renowned Curwen Studio near Cambridge editioning artist’s original prints. He experiments with various techniques ranging from printmaking, painting, paper engineering (incorporating moving paper automata) and creating box/book works.

Aren't they luminous, Margaret. I too saw them in Jan and didn't buy. Have regretted it so going back next week. Each one is so filled with colour and texture it's inspiring ... just pings your spirits! There's something about the shapes, too - maybe they're mandala-like - almost hypnotic. Thankyou from Jo in Scotland. PS - good to have stumbled across your blog ... I'll keep visiting.
