Kilner Jars

Collections and curiosities. In 2016 I screenprinted 100 Kilner jars. I have been slowly filling the jars ever since.

Screen Prints

The Kilner jars are printed to scale. The objects inside are not. This project is about sentimentality, British quirk and things that are important to me, even if just for a fleeting moment.

In the spirit of collections and rarity, these objects have been printed at very low print runs, ranging from just 1 to a whopping 7.
