About this work

You see a small sheet of paper covered in tiny, uneven black dots—like someone ran it through a copy machine that was almost out of ink. This is a mimeograph print, a cheap way to make copies before photocopiers. Higgins used the machine’s quirks to make art, not just duplicates. The dots aren’t perfect, and that’s the point. It’s part of Fluxus, a loose group that treated everyday actions like art. To see more work like this, look up The Museum of Modern Art.
