Moth paper bag installation by Tony Knox, this work was inspired by the residency at the turnpike gallery Leigh , prior to the Blundell street show and with the tight budget for promotion of the show a concept was born to print the posters on paper bags , Hence the title of the show "what's in the paper bag" through the course of the show the moth paper bags drop to the ground and the piece was changeling ,moth paper bags where left for the public to take for free " I wanted to give the viewer a piece of art to physically take back for free" .
