A6 Greetings Card & Envelope

For nearly forty years, Covert’s practice has largely evolved around his long-standing Monument and Lifetime Drawing series. His works suggest a confluence of references from folk art to psychedelia, or even the faintly obsessive qualities of fan cultures, while closely recalling Victorian traditions of cataloguing brass and grave rubbings. This greetings card captures Covert's practice of carefully filling his works on paper drawings with undulating checked patterns, which take upwards of forty hours to complete.
