but I don’t mind
Stephanie Lifshutz
Through the use of neon and text I communicate "suggested commands" playing off the history of signage as a direct instruction to the viewer, inviting those who read my signs to act of their own volition.
The work is directly related to my identity as a feminist Jewish woman and the verbiage I have been conditioned and often expected to use as a form of politeness in order to phrase questions and appeals as nonthreatening requests.
The work is an edition of 3, made to order. Dimensions: 36” x 24” x 3.5” Year: 2019
Glass, hardware, power source and instructions for installation provided. Work is shipping from Brooklyn NY. Estimated shipping from $100, but exact quote will be provided at the time of sale.
