'Go Out Don't Go Out'. Cultural Shift no.5.
The last of the little mail order shifts looks at the chaos surrounding retail and lockdown restrictions. It features an embroidered Google map of central London, 'temporarily closed' shop signs and a market stall of masks made from internet memes, tweets and cultural images. The words embroidered across the top reflect the reaction of Londoners to being berated by the PM during the summer of 2020 for not going back to work.
London is temporarily closed,
Marylebone High street embroidered onto a vintage silk scarf, like those made during WW2.
...that's how we felt about it,
The map being embroidered.
