heroes 4 x 5
Originally uploaded by dangerology
I did a show called Homework for Heroes at the Edinburgh Festival this year, along with Nat Luurtsema, Tom Goodliffe and Helen Arney. This was one of our “homework” projects while developing the piece.
I went around asking people who their heroes were, and they’d write it on a postcard. I’ve had these in my house for ages. Because they never really made it into the final show, I thought it’d be a shame for them to go to waste.
From left to right
Top Row: “Sarunas,” “My Mate Thunderbutton,” “Buster Keaton,” “Molly Ivins”
Second Row: “Robert Fisk,” “Francis Ford Coppola,” “Isambard Kingdom Brunel,” “Mike From School”
Third Row: “Lilliam Urena Cerdas,” “My Junior School Headmistress (Gave me a chance. Died before I could ever thank her),” “Dad,” “Supergirl”
Fourth Row: “Batman,” “Henry Cole,” “Disabled man Who Shouts ‘Whore!’ at me near my home,” “My Friend Batfitch”
Fifth Row: “Hiro from Heroes he’s a hero,” “Captain Jack Harkness,” “David Attenborough,” “My Dad”
Can you guess which one is mine?
