Mahogany neck and body, rosewood fingerboard, humbucking neck and bridge pick ups, signed by Nick Mason 990 mm by 330 mm Born In Somerset, Justine Smith moved to London to study at The City and Guilds of London Art School from 1990 to 1993. She has lived and worked in London ever since. As an artist Justine Smith is interested in the concept of money, and how it touches almost every aspect of our lives. She is interested in money as a conduit of power and also in the value systems with which we surround it. Through her collages and sculptures she examines our relationship with money in a political, moral and social sense. Justine Smith has exhibited in Galleries and museums internationally, and has work in the collections of the British Council, the Government Art Collection, financial institutions, international corporations and numerous private collections. "30 Ten foot hand painted Les Paul guitars positioned around Central London this June, seems like a great way to raise money for the three wonderful charities." Nick Mason Categories:
