We're no fans of the often nauseating language used by developers to describe new buildings, so we're glad that artist Gram Hilleard has come up with a creative way of conveying our dislike for their wayward exaggerations.
Hilleard has taken a London tourist stalwart — the postcard — and given it his own twist. Now, instead of featuring picturesque London buildings such as Buckingham Palace or St. Paul's, they capture new developments and areas under threat by proposed offices and luxury flats, summing up the reality perfectly.
We also love his translations of developer speak into cynical, though arguably correct, plain English.
Gram Hilleard: Developers Up Yours is on at Offsite Gallery, 175-185 Gray's Inn Road, WC1X 8UE until 7 June. Entrance is free.
