This is another outstanding piece of paste up work from Tian in East Street. Not only is the subject beautifully worked, but the placement, inside a phone booth, is perfect. The cut-out is taken from a piece of work called ‘Combative Jaq’… I’m not sure that I know too much more about it.

I love the sepia tints contrasting with the blues of the woman’s clothes. The selection of the photograph and the alteration of it is superb. I realise that wheatpastes are not to everyone’s taste, particularly the authorities, but they are a darn sight better than the stream of advertising posters and hoardings that we are subjected to on every street in every town and city.
