I've Surprised Myself by Coming to Terms With the End of the World

Offbeat and witty, the title of Charming Baker’s pop art influenced print pokes fun at a Very British brand of stoicism, as helicopters spin wildly out of control, together forming a shape like a bladed fan, in a collage of destruction.

Created in 2011 at the height of a world-wide double-dip recession, this work, perhaps, playfully explores how narratives of apocalypse have become a normalised part of our lives.

I've Surprised Myself by Coming to Terms With the End of the World is available as a limited edition of 200 Giclée prints, with a colour screenprint and varnish.
