Don’t panic, it’s just a scratch, I’ll be fine! Broken Dollar bill (interchangeable) Blue Tac (interchangeable) Band Aids (interchangeable) This piece looks to convey the fragility of the current global economic situation, a system tentatively held together by cheap, short term adhesive fixes, ready to fall apart at any given moment. The title, in direct juxtaposition refers to the ‘spin’ narrative of central authorities, who want you to believe everything is still OK, which clearly it is not. We are well beyond the stage of temporary Band Aid and Blu-Tac style fixes to what has become a fundamentally flawed global economic policy. This single issuance Counterparty asset (JUSTASCRATCH), acts both as proof of ownership of the artwork, and the authority to configure and display the piece using locally sourced Dollar Bills, Blue Tac, and Band Aids. The idea being that any one physical display of the work is worthless and disposable, yet easily repeatable anywhere on the planet, without any physical requirement for shipping.
