This image shows twelve identical small boxes arranged in a grid. Each box has a dark brown top, a white label with blue text, and a pair of crossed tools—one looks like a knife, the other a pair of scissors. The background is a flat green color, and the boxes are slightly tilted in each frame. The repetition makes the boxes feel like they’re moving or shifting, even though nothing changes. The tools inside look like office supplies, but the way they’re arranged feels a little off or staged. If you like this style, check out more by the artist Edward Fitzgerald.
