About this work

This image is a collage of black, white, and red text on a white background. The words are arranged in jagged blocks and lines, overlapping in places. Some text is bold and thick, while other parts are thin and stretched. The overall look is chaotic but deliberate, like a mix of typewriter and printing errors. The artist used a double-sided printing method, which means the backside of the paper also had an image. This piece plays with how words and text can feel alive or broken when forced into new shapes. Look up The Museum of Modern Art next to see more work like this.
