Storm in a Teacup is obviously a visual pun. But, though it does not have political implications - no one would describe the situation in Northern Ireland as a storm in a teacup - it has private and personal implications. The artist himself is often in a teacup (see the next print in this series), naked and exposed to the elements, however trivial and low on the Beaufort scale the storm may be.
