This is a plain white plastic bag with bold red letters spelling out "THE NAM" in uneven, blocky shapes. The letters are slightly faded, and the bag has a small white tag at the top. It looks simple but stands out because of the bright red text against the white background. The piece plays with how we expect art to look—this is just a bag, but it’s treated like a work. The artist used screenprinting, a method usually for prints or posters, to make this everyday object feel special. Check out Fiona Banner to see more of her work.
