Below are the newspaper articles from which my January faces were cut. It’s the actual newspaper that I’ve stitched, not reproductions. The information in the articles may be fabricated. I use the Metro and London Standard newspapers because they are free. I couldn’t afford to make this piece if I bought a more reputable publication every day.
