'In the 60s I created a series of Hot Dog drawings, believing them to be contemporary ‘fast food’ junk food ‘logical’ progression to the food still lives of Chardin. They are as important a 20th century development as a rocket!’ Both a stage reached, products of our condition.'Self has continued to develop and extend this series over the years in different ways through drawings paintings and collage.
