PRESS RELEASE

Mark Pawson is the latest artist to exhibit in Tatty Devine's Brick Lane gallery space. A self-confessed
image junkie, photocopier fetishist and afficionado of accessible, affordable, low-tech hi-fi printing
methods. Mark is a one-man production line creating and selling a constant stream of artists books,
postcards, badges, multiples and other essential ephemera. His unique hand-made works straddle the
worlds of pop culture and fine art, and reach a mixed and varied audience.

For SIGNS at Tatty Devine, Mark is designing 12 new limited edition Perspex signs, following on from the
success of his 'Open/Closed' signs (which can be seen in the windows of several stylish boutiques
around London). Themes range from practical and useful to whimsical and provocative. Some of the
pieces will be based on themes from previous works, such as 'Wear More Badges' and 'Never Throw
Anything Away Ever'.

The signs will be in editions of 15-60 and there will also be a small collection of necklaces and brooches
being sold alongside the signs. Each piece will be packaged in a screen-printed cotton bag and sold as a
numbered edition, with a certificate and signature. They will all be available to buy from Tatty Devine's
Brick Lane store for the duration of the show.

Mark has also worked with Levis to produce a poster for their 'Vintage Clothing' range and his books
are in the collections of the Tate Gallery Library, London and MOMA Library, New York. Recent solo
shows include The Horse Hospital, London, April 2008 and Handmade, Readymade, Lazercut, Here
Gallery Bristol, September 2007.

Mark Pawson at Tatty Devine 6 November -23 December, 2008.
