Three Equal Texts 2022
Pen on Paper
In 2007, Micah Lexier presented Two Equal Texts in which the artist presented his friend with a 191 character text and asked him to create a second text using every letter and punctuation mark that Lexier used in his original. The original text described this very task, and the two were subsequently displayed side by side.
This is my attempt.
