Hand sawn and lacquered poplar plywood, 2017.

25 text pieces that visually work as one big installation. The 25 pieces are snippets of texts that I found in the spamfilter of my email address. All the letters are hand sawn out of 9 mm lacquered poplar plywood. The letter font is Arial, one of the ten Core fonts for the Web.

The piece premiered as part of Typeforce 8, the annual show with type-based work from around the world, at the Co-Prosperity Sphere in Chicago. The exhibition ran from February 17 – March 3, 2017.
