(with thanks to Matthew Badham): Never Been, the giant comic strip that exhibited on the walls of Projekts MCR skateboard park in Manchester earlier this year is now online at www.stuartkolakovic.co.uk/neverbeen.htm
The exhibition , both real and virtual, is the work of artist Stuart Kolakovic, an exhibition of one real long strip, that ended up being almost 10 meters long. The imagery – just one ‘panel’ of which is published here — is quite stunning.
