Artist’s Statement:
Less we forget. A homage to Geralton Holton who designed the Ban the Bomb symbol in 1958. He was a conscientious objector during the Second World War. He explained that the symbol incorporated the semaphore letters N (uclear) D (isarmament). Instead of fighting during the war, he worked on a farm in Northfolk.
