Paul Noble — C.l.i.p.o.n
Paul Noble

C.l.i.p.o.n

1997

Paul Noble's *C.l.i.p.o.n.* is a densely detailed work characteristic of the artist's obsessive draftsmanship, likely rendered in his signature pencil on paper technique. The piece belongs to Noble's ongoing imaginary world of "Nobson Newtown," a sprawling fictional municipality populated by architectural forms built from his invented typeface. With meticulous precision, Noble constructs a dystopian yet darkly humorous urban landscape that blurs the boundaries between language, architecture, and image.
