“Chemical Lolly” is a sandstone boulder drawing created by scratching pebble pigments from coloured pebbles into the boulder.The beach lollipop however doesn’t have enticing fruity looking colours but a chemical warning sign logo I utilised from the side of a bleach bottle.The logo used symbolises illegal dumping of industrial chemical products into the ocean and I deliberately subverted a traditional seaside image in order to convey this message.
