Rendered in Bannister’s crisp stencil language on raw cardboard, the work balances humour, social commentary and urban minimalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"416\" data-end=\"704\"\u003eTaking its title from the affectionate slang for vintage British police cars, the “jam sandwich” livery becomes both subject and symbol. Here, the classic Cortina is elevated from functional object to cultural icon, loaded with references to memory, authority and British visual identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"706\" data-end=\"1021\"\u003eExecuted with pared-back precision, the composition allows the humble cardboard ground to play an active role, reinforcing the DIY authenticity and street-born sensibility of the work. The contrast between found material and carefully layered stencil imagery gives the piece both immediacy and quiet sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1023\" data-end=\"1224\"\u003eTrue to Bannister’s practice, \u003cem data-start=\"1053\" data-end=\"1075\"\u003eJam Sandwich Cortina\u003c\/em\u003e carries a playful irreverence while tapping into deeper themes of power, nostalgia and iconography.
