Eye Chart
I’ve been wearing spectacless since I was 8 years old, and must be onto my 10th or 12th pair of frames by now. One day, I rummaged through my drawers and found all the old frames I could lay my hands on, and turned them into a cut paper artwork, which was auctioned off at an event at Cape Town’s Book Lounge last year.
Now, encouraged by Charlene Walton, who bought the original, I have turned it into a silkscreen print called Eye Chart.
Eye Chart is printed in a deep near-black aubergine colour onto acid-free Hannemuhle paper in an edition of 45 signed prints. I have framed some of these, which are available for sale in my shop at 201 Bree St, Cape Town.

Lovely to think that the money raised was all in aid of books and that now you can celebrate your beautiful visual history with such a happy print xox Penelope
