'Old maps, love letters, stamps, playing cards, match boxes, rosettes, buttons, labels, patterns, all form the starting point of Peter Clark's innovative and often humorous paper collages. Clark undertakes many scavenger trips to antiques fair, car-boot sales, bric-a-brac markets and second hand stores to find the right objects to inspire him. Paperwork presents the working methods of this eccentric and unique artist, showing the progression of his work from found ephemera to pieces of art. Clark's most recognised work are the series of dogs, from Spaniels to Bulldogs, and clothes, from a dress out of old Ordnance Survey maps to a Hell's Angels jacket made of old bibles and prayers books. Accompanied by a background story to his work and beautifully illustrated with full-page prints, this book shows us for the first time an insight in to Peter Clark's career, from his early works to his more recent collages. Paperwork will inspire anyone with an interest in collage, collecting and scrapbooking.'
