This looks like a simple drawing glued onto paper. A stick-figure person stands inside a rough oval shape, arms raised like they’re waving or dancing. Above them, bold letters say “I AM FLUXUS” in uneven handwriting. A big arrow points from the text to the figure, like it’s claiming the drawing. The paper has a cheap, photocopied feel—edges look torn, and the ink is smudged in spots. The artist’s name, “Ben,” is scrawled in the corner, almost like a signature. Next, check out Ben Vautier.
