About Michael St.Mark

Conceptual / experimental multi-discipline artist, writer and photographer. Art influencer and founder of London Dada, recalling Dada's original aims and principles as envisaged by it's founder Hugo Ball. Eschews the often politically-motivated taboo on expressions of critical thought within art. Admiring Duchamp in going beyond the seemingly endless infatuation with the ' pretty picture' retinal and instead refusing to accept the standards and practices of an established corrupt art world and creatively stifling conventions that are still considered essential to attain fame and financial success: refusing to repeat himself or to develop one recognizable style to placate the commercial needs of the market.

It has to be exposed, the great inkjet cartridge scam – a classic example of misuse of new technology by the large corporations to entrap and then force the public into buying own-brand refills at extortionate prices, while toothless government retail watchdogs stand by and … watch.

Just one of the remarkable manifestations on DaliKrab day, a bizarre holiday invented by fellow Dadaist and Absurdist Justynn Tyme.
You could do worse than give yourself a Salvadorian Kit kat krab break from the stalemate of normality and have a seafood butchers at all this year’s Dali Krab crustacean crossover expansions into other realms of melting grandfather clocks, live crabs in vending machines * etc etc @ blog

probably justabout the most disturbing little film you’re likely to see ’til daliKrab day 2012. Hopefully a temporary public artwork installation and the creatures let loose again.
