The Littlest Obby Oss – Pen Munys – 13th Pressing
This mini print depicts a mast beast obby oss. This one is called PenMunys, or Tiny Head in Cornish. Cornwall, like Wales, also has a tradition around festivities, documented in Cornish Christmas Guise plays of including an obby oss character, constructed as a mast beast with an articulated horses skull on top. The Cornish oss typically has a dress of tatters and appear very often are very tall, dance and run at speed, and are full of mischief. They are accompanied by a teazer who does their best to keep them under control, for everyone’s safety, but anything not nailed down or tightly fastened may find itself a tasty morsel of these beasts.

Aladdin Sane Bowie Tribute Skull
Bowie was a master of symbolism and allegory in his work, I connected with his need to create. This
piece begged to be made. Bowie played with mortality throughout his work, the ‘death’ of Ziggy for example,
was planned to perfection by his creator. The Aladdin ‘bolt’ has taken on a life of it’s own as an identifier of a time,
a creation, but ultimately demise.Cast from plaster from a human skull, sculpted then decorated to a high-specification, this piece will
give years of pleasure. Encrusted with glitter and shimmer, with the synonymous bolt motif.100% handmade and created in the UK.
