An early mixed media piece including quotes from a Tom Waits song. The light in the eye actually worked. I can remember exhibiting this in the Barbican Library in a group show with some other mixed media works of mine and getting some of the worst feedback in the comments book I’ve ever had! I wish I still had them to hand but they were along the lines of “Steve Marriott’s work looks like it came from a rubbish bin and that’s where it should have stayed!” People got quite angry about it. None of which made me stop making more.
