bryd's new installation in the Window Gallery combines the artist's ongoing graffiti practice with a response to the children's book The Worst Band in the Universe by Graeme Base. byrd has drawn on the colour pallet, characters and other compositional elements from the book to influence the form, scale and arrangement of his letters. Supplementing the installation are some hyperlinks leading the augmented viewer to other letter paintings and sketches.
