Gallery quality prints of our original double-sided hand embroidered artwork “Don’t Worry It’s all Fucked” from 2016. We created the artwork for the group exhibition SFW (Suitable for work/ So Fucking What)
The front side of the artwork reads 'Don't worry be happy' and the back 'It's all fucked'. In this double sided embroidery the positive and negative messages are contained within each other. Often self help/uplifting quotes can seem a little overly positive and off-puttingly earnest so we wanted to create a tongue in cheek response to that stereotype. Usually people are expected to be positive but underlying that is a more cynical or pessimistic acceptance that you have no choice. Everything is all fucked so you may as well try not too worry and be happy while you can.
The stitching for the back is sewn into the reverse stitches that build the front artwork. So from the front it’s not apparent that there is a second artwork at the back.
Please note this item is for the pair of A3 prints, the front and backsides of the double embroidery.
Dimensions:
Each print is approximately 297 mm x 420 mm including 15mm white border.
