An act,
not an object.

A banknote, withdrawn from circulation and inscribed by hand. The work begins where the currency ends — at the moment of signature.

— Epigraph
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." Henry Ford

What is Art
№ 232N3082828 · 2026

The signature
is the work.

The banknote is no longer money. It is the support on which the gesture occurs. Hand-inscribed, numbered, and entered into a permanent ledger. The piece is sold once — its second life belongs to its owner.

— Voices on simplicity
"Art must be simple."
Giacinto Scelsi
"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
Leonardo da Vinci
"An artist says a hard thing in a simple way."
Charles Bukowski
"A signature, on a banknote, is enough to begin."
Nomad Economics, 2026

In contemporary art, a single principle persists — that work need not be complicated to be powerful.

— Statement

"The state prints.
The artist signs.
The collector decides what was made."
