Secret 7" 2018

These were my entries for the Secret 7” 2018 exhibition being held at The Jetty, Greenwich Peninsula in London.

Every year Secret 7” takes 7 tracks from 7 of the best-known musicians around and presses each one 100 times to 7” vinyl. They then openly invite artists to submit their creations. Contributors in the past include David Shrigley, Gilbert & George, Ai Weiwei, Es Devlin, Sir Paul Smith, Sir Antony Gormley, Jeremy Deller, Polly Morgan, Jake & Dinos Chapman, Yoko Ono, Sir Peter Blake, Julian Opie, Martin Parr, Jenny Holzer, Harland Miller and Gavin Turk to name a few.

The result is 700 unique records which are exhibited in London before being sold on a first come, first served basis. However, buyers don’t know who created the artwork or even which song it’s for, until they have parted with their cash.

Out of the 3 entries I submitted, my cover for Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Castles made of sand’ was chose to be exhibited and sold.
