These images combine monoprint and linocut print processes and are printed digitally. The details of these prints are full of meaning and have clear individual concepts; death, revenge, secrecy, wealth and the importance of the uninteresting. My animated sting tackles the confusion of the cases and how so many people manage to be tangled up in the case. These concepts are all tied together by the set of chess pieces representing social status, strategical thinking and the fact a murder mystery is like a game, it has winner and a loser. The delicate imagery of the flowers and the colours make the image appear pleasant and calming at first but then when you notice the details of the image, the darker concepts become clear. It is a reflection on Christie's murder mysteries being set in quintessential country locations but also a reflection on her as a person because there is a lot more to her than meets the eye.
