This work is part of a suite of prints by Johnny Spencer whose work featured in the British Art Show of 2000. They present research into aspects of our social and cultural life - from hairstyles to economic groups. Information is gathered from a wide range of sources and re-presented as an authoritative examination of the subject.

These works raise questions about academic practice and the way that we collect information to define and theorise both small and vast areas of experience.
