FIRESTARTER is another cut and paste creation from the New England spraypaint punk, ENZYME. The pages are equal parts loaded iconography and thick shiny black printing. The main images are from survival books; visual instructions on how to use a flame rod, direct sunlight, or re-use gunpowder to start a fire. Fire, arguably the force that once humans learned to manage it, allowed for a major technological and societal evolution. Fire is also severely destructive and spreads in all directions until the fuel is extinguished. The metaphors are abound.
ENZYME surrounds these core images with 8-bit label maker icons that are assured to trigger associations. mailboxes, pencils and paper, money bags, spider webs, black cats, a pair of scissors, a book, a train, dolphins... a dark tunnel. FIRESTARTER feels anarchic, yet benign. Revolutionary yet classic.
