'Roadkill' Singular & Plural

Being the latest example of found 'Readymade Cubism', intriguingly reformed & represented through the act(s) of accidental compression, to be processed in the 'roadkill' diptych series, with once again the visible 'synechdochal' fragments of familiar, ubiquitous brand(ed) identity (those languid loops of the logo finding, in this particular instance, a visual analogy in the reshaped former top of the can-object) displaying sufficient information to enable a 'positive ID'...

Presenting also the series of all 48 - to date - of the 'roadkill' diptych drawings, in grid format, applying a pattern to the sequence of the body of work, & illustrating both the subtleties of difference within the basic uniformity of the process of representation, between each part of the whole - those developments of technique & so on - & the endless variety of the individual instances of the source subject/object matter.
