Unnecessary Signage
40 silk screen prints on aluminum, each 41 x 58 cm, edition of 50
2015-2020

A series of prints resembling metal road signs depict humanity’s struggle with morality and the human condition. Each sign is associated with a news event that occurred within the last 30 years, such as a woman who murdered her husband eight days after their marriage (Do Not Push Husband Off Cliff During Honeymoon). The QR code beneath each sign provides a link to the associated news article that viewers can access through their smartphones.
