Dear Reader,
Scrawls are often a marginal gloss, a layer over an existing work produced by an engagement with its ideas. Other scrawls are public: graffiti, engravings in school desktops, or signs supporting an idea or railing against it. No matter what the form, scrawls can lead to insightful things.
We present Scrawl, the end result of notes and scribbles. Though driven individually to create, collectively we produced an anthology of our reflections on society.
Inspired by our interests and experiences, we serve up a delicious buffet in answer to “what’s going on?”
Enjoy!
Chantel Ings Adam Newlands
