House of Cards
Jon was recently invited to contribute to an interesting charity art project. The House of Cards exhibition uses playing cards–that bastion of gambling and money–as the canvas. More directly, the metaphor “house of cards” applies to Britain’s current housing crisis: “fragile and in danger of collapse.” Jon’s card is among a great array of British designers, including Damien Hirst and Vivienne Westwood. The cards were on exhibit at Haunch of Venison last week. If you didn’t make it, you can pick up a limited edition set of playing cards featuring the art from the show at Shelter’s online shop. If you don’t have £70 or hate card games, there are a bunch of other ways to help (starting at £10 here).
