ADAM DANT TALK - Zoe Budwig

I was particularly inspired when Adam Dant spoke about the processes in the production of his work. He started sketching on buses, taking inspiration around him. This lead him to in 1995 produce and distribute Donald's Parsnips' Daily Journal. He also had a weekly column in the Independent on Sunday. 

Dant also spoke about his work with members of the public, for example Reading Children's Police Force and a high class magazine.

The Triumph of Debt

 

This piece above relates to the Financial meltdown of Lehmann Brothers. His drawings are very detailed and always show his interactions with the public and spaces. 

Dant's inspiration is always taken from things around him, and this is something I need to consider in my work, to make sure I am utilising Manchester as much as I can in my work.
