GROSS

Transactionland’s resident designers Conway and Young set up in the shop on a busy Friday afternoon with their portable DIY screenprinting studio (delivered on a bike trailer!) for a drop in carrier bag screenprinting workshop.

Recycled bags were printed with the word GROSS, reflecting our gross relation to the big [gross] oil that makes them, and the [gross] consumerism they are designed to hold. Bags were sold at an enormous [gross] profit for £10, reflecting something closer to the true cost of the oil we extract from the ground. They were also now ‘art’. Gross!
