Naked Lunchby ~theartform

Scraps

Piece of uni work. We had to create a piece of typography based artwork on an extract from the book 'Naked Lunch' by William S. Burroughs:

"the sailor spotted this reptile. he drifted over and ordered a green syrup. the reptile had a little, round disk mouth of brown gristle, expressionless green eyes almost covered by a thin membrane of eyelid. the sailor waited an hour before the creature picked up his presence. "any eggs for Fats?" he asked, the words stirring through the reptiles fan hairs. it took two hours for the reptile to raise three pink transparent fingers covered with black fuss. several meat eaters lay in vomit, too weak to move. (the black meat is like tainted cheese, overpoweringly delicious and nauseating so that the eaters eat and vomit and eat again until they fall exhausted). a painted youth slithered in and seized one of the great black claws sending the sweet, sick smell curling through the cafe."

edit

forgot to add that they needed to be black and white
