Two vinyl records sit side by side in a folder lined with red fabric. The records are plain black, no labels. The folder is closed, so you can't see the grooves. This piece plays with scale. It looks like a small book you could hold. But vinyl records are big—each weighs more than a paperback. The artist turns everyday objects into something almost weightless. Look up Paul Etienne Lincoln to see more of his playful, odd-size works.
