About this work

You see a long, skinny strip of paper covered in smudges, blotches, and tiny hand-stamped letters. The colors are mostly dull—browns, grays, and faded blues—like an old office memo left in the rain. Moore made this in 1975 using office tools: a mimeograph machine (the kind that spits out flyers) and hand stamps. She layered prints, stencils, and ink by hand, making each copy slightly different. It feels like a secret note or a rough draft, not a polished artwork. Look up other works by Claire Moore to see more of her messy, playful prints.
