 )The Hilde Smith ArchiveFor this collection Hilde continued to draw using 
 Sharpie pens and nib-pens with Indian ink and used a photocopier to distor
 t drawn images. The prints for this collection comprised: ’Cosmic Check 
 Big’\, ’Cosmic Check Small’\, ’Cosmic Nature’\, The iconic nauti
 cal BodyMap star was included in the ’Cosmic Nature’ design. The colle
 ction included lots of frills\, ruffles\, Cosmic buttons\, Cosmic stickers
 \, Cosmic labels\, copper jewellery. The show invite was made from distort
 ed linocuts. She recalls\,\n’’I experimented using a micro-glass ball 
 reflective print paste\, now re-invented with modern technology for textil
 es and used by security clothing firms\, but 39 years ago the only availab
 le option was the glass beads which were added to paint for road markings.
  But the cost was too cosmic...because every 25 metres the screens wore ou
 t - an unrealistic idea for production. The prints were proofed and produc
 ed in Bermondsey railway arches by David Jamison.
