On first seeing this great photograph taken by Libyan doctor Prashant Bhatt of childrens’ shadows in Khadra forest Tripoli, It immediately reminded of and deeply resonated with, the ultimate sacrifice made by many brave young Libyan men during the revolution to overthrow a brutal dictator in 2011 – M. St.M

London Dada work 568; Introducing "Anachrosaur". A1 – The Queen’s TV Christmas Message.

Anachrosaur 1

Anachrosaur 1 – The Queen’s Christmas Message to the nation and the Commonwealth.
c. Art Axis 2011

A2
Ancillary work; Anachrosaur II ( Royal Begging Bowl ( to scale) )

Long time no hear from the elusive Mr AA, but he surfaces here with a new  Dada series beckoning, where the ” Dada Anachrosaur” { a new Anachronism / Dinosaur derived Dadaism ) poses in front of various archetypal British people and institutions; calling time on a weary, dreary, drab, dismal and often terminally corrupt and rigged old set-up  ( still, God love the Queen & her doubtless well-meaning heart ) ;paving the way for the fresh stART in the arts and media – and in society in general – that the New Dadaists believe is inexorably destined for this downtrodden yet potentially great-again nation.
