The increase in student fees, it could be argued, will turn many people's world upside down. At least this was Andrew Youthed's interpretation of the Art Trail brief. He chose to use a gritty urban style which would contrast with the cosy semi rural Battle. His proposal was such a contrast to others that it stood out and just had to be selected.
He produced a very large poster; it was about 1500mm in height. It was posted on a beautiful brick wall looking over fields. In addition, he had printed lots of smaller stickers which were stuck in various places over the town.
Interestingly it was favored by the local Tory MP and was removed by someone unknown. It's difficult to predict people's response....
