Original Fake

Stamp On Canvas · 150 x 250 cm

Room scale · 1.7 m human

The word fake seems to be written as large red letters on a white canvas. When the viewer comes closer the letters reveal that it is in fact made out of thousands of original stamps. The work is sold as an edition of 5 while at the same time being sold as an original because each stamp structure differs slightly. It sublimly questions the contemporary production processes and the resulting value system we give to „original“ as opposed to reproduced „fake“ art works.
