About this work

This work looks like a sheet of paper covered in small sticky notes and handwritten lines. The notes repeat the same short phrase, each one slightly different. It plays with how we organize ideas. The artist used everyday office supplies to turn a simple sheet into something that feels both personal and a little messy. See how he plays with words like Allen Ruppersberg did in his other pieces.
