About this work

This is a digital drawing made to look like a slot machine roll. It shows images of famous paintings next to portraits of thinkers like Paul Celan. The trick is randomness. The app mixes art and ideas like a slot machine. It’s a game, not a painting. You press a button and the images spin. Try the Museum of Ethnography site next.
