About The Work
Berlin artist Marlon Wobst created this series of four, six-color prints combining lithography and linocut relief. Although Wobst primarily works in oil painting, his exploration of the print medium resulted in images that beautifully capture the painterly, layered atmosphere seen in his canvases. This series is dedicated to some of the acronyms that have irrevocably fixed themselves into contemporary society and social media: "TGIF", "OMFG", "LMAO" and "ROFL". Wobst says of the work, “for me, these acronyms represent the doctrines which surreptitiously guide our society. As such it seems only logical to portray them as tattoos on my knuckles, taking after Reverend Harry Powell in “The Night Of The Hunter.”
