About this work

This is a simple screenprint with bold purple text on a white background. The words read: *"Le fric, c'est pas si chic, dit le Tajik."* The letters are uneven, some thick and some thin, as if handwritten but printed. The phrase is in French and means something like *"Money isn’t so classy, says the Tajik."* It’s playful and a little cheeky, mixing language with a casual attitude. If you like this style, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more modern art prints.
