Q: Why the name Prole?
A: My name "Prole", comes from the word "Proletariat" that features heavily in 1984, the proles in 1984 could have established a better world if they revolted....but they never needed to revolt against the system because all the proles cared about were films, football, beer, and the lottery, which were all provided to them by the state, a bit like modern times. If only Orwell could have known how right on the mark he was.
Q: How did you learn your techniques?
A: Printing and stencil work are much the same bedfellows, you make up an image with solid colours forced through an open mesh for printing and you do the same but using spraypaint and holes cut in card. I'm a fully trained screen printer (large format, traditional hand, and textile), art was always a "part time" thing until i lost my job at the end of 2008. The chance arose to do what i wanted to do "full time" and being versed in the screen printing technique enables me to understand the layering of images to make the "bigger picture". This is a great help when working with stencils.
