‘Hollywood Roller coaster’ is based on Snakes and Ladders the game of chance in which ascending the ladders is a reward for virtue while vice is penalised by sliding down the snakes. There are always more snakes then ladders, as it has always been held that it is easier to follow the path of vice than adopt that of virtue. In this work each of the 100 squares contains the name of a Matinee idol or Hollywood star whose surname ranges from A to Z . As with the traditional game images are placed at the head and tail of the snakes, and at the top and bottom of the ladders. nbspThe nbspposition of each ‘star’ is positioned randomly and the selection of whether a person is on a ladder or a snake is determined by a famous or infamous role portrayed by them, or perhaps a little unfairly by the populist view of them as portrayed by the media.nbspThis signed limited edition digital print has been finished with a silk screen printed satin protection varnish and an Ultra Violet glaze on the Snakes and Ladders.nbspClick these words to find similar printsLimited Edition Giclee Contemporary Art nbsp Buy Art, Pay Later nbspSilk Screen Printsnbsp
