Preempting a strike...

With four weeks to go until the end of University modules, the first of my exhibition pieces is  now finished one week early to account for union strikes planned by some of the tutors.

'Killed in Grief' is an experimental typographic piece based on the horrific events in Japan over the past few days, consisting of the words 'grief' and 'killed' in the modernist typeface 'Ogaki' over-layed with the famous painting 'The Great Wave of Kanagawa.'

The icon featured bottom-right is a mini-graphic highlighting the appeal by the British Red Cross to support those suffering with the earthquake and resulting tsunami.

My thoughts and prayers go out to them.
