Two Times Elliott celebrate the discontinued one-pound note with their very own studio currency

In November, we were contacted to take part in the Two Pages project, a series of nomadic sketchbooks that aim to connect the international creative community through a hand-to-hand journey, run by Konstantinos Trichas. For this 10 years anniversary edition, Two Pages was reaching out to London studios to create a response to a given theme, the ‘£1 coin.’ Opportunities like these are always a good time for us to think wider and use our workshop series as a space for experiments and challenge ideas further. In some ways, Two Pages acts as an archive of valuable traces of creative inputs from all over the world and champions cultural influences by recording mark-making for the years to come. Given the pound coin theme, we started to investigate the history of the British pound and realised that there was an interesting parallel to make.
