Martin Parr’s Money
(2014)

In photography circles having Martin Parr buy one of your books is considered something of a coup, a sign that you have ‘made it’ as a photographer. When this happened to me I decided that rather than spending his money I would make the banknotes into a limited edition book. Bound in a gold cover with gold thread, the resulting volume is pokes fun at the capriciousness of photo land.

Self-published 2014. Edition of five with sequentially increasing price, and one artists proof.
