This is a handmade artwork that looks exactly like a gift certificate.
It is priced at €48.66 — the EU edition. That amount is the equivalent of a month's living for roughly 736 million people who survive at or below the lower global poverty threshold. It is also, depending on where you live, less than a dinner out, a tank of petrol, or a pair of trainers.
The certificate is made by hand from scrap materials, signed, and made to look entirely authentic. What you do with that — whether you give it, keep it, or simply sit with what the number means — is part of the work.
Part of EP&W — Exploring Perception and Worth.
Handmade from scrap materials. Each piece unique.
