Lot Essay

‘The title of For Each Stencil A Revolution is a quotation by Yasser Arafat. It was a comment about this political period at the end of the 1960s when a lot of demonstrations and strikes emerged in every part of the world, and for each stencil used a little revolution began. The significance of carbon paper is not the same for everybody. For people of my generation it’s a reminder of the time before the widespread use of photocopies at school when we received exercises or lessons from our teacher in this very smelly A4 paper. For people who were active politically during 1968 it’s the memory of nights passed by printing tracts with a stencil machine. For others it’s just a very archaic material, no longer used today.’
