Statement
His drawings systematically re-examine the ways in which historical events are represented in print media. The process, which Bryce describes as "mimetic analysis" involves selecting archives for printed materials such as advertisements, newspaper articles and propaganda leaflets to faithfully reproduce a selection of these materials, creating his own "reconstructions" in ink on paper.
