Adam occasionally provided materials for Jess's work: she took a photograph that became Ida, Duncan & I: Translation #18 (1957) and sent him magazine clippings for
paste-ups. Adam also scouted out materials for Jess's "Salvages" series, including a human skull that she offered first with a caveat (its "eye sockets did not look benign") and later, after Jess did not respond, with an entirely different description (it had, she wrote, "beautiful and mysterious eye sockets").
Whether their schtick is old-school graffiti, stencil art or "
paste-ups," Melbourne's street artists are pioneers, and you may need a guide to help discover their best work.
