the sign for the show: PLAF – AUTONOMOUS MECHANISMS – ELTONO & MOMO !!
the show included many elements – including some found floor pieces – and – some cut and painted wooden wall assemblages . . . that read as nautical ‘signs’ . . . or flags.
a wall of unique 1/1 screen prints derived from a random computer script of MOMO’S making !!
a wall of – autonomous markers – or mechanisms !!
a marker.
and included a wall of photos documenting the actual project and it’s installation into the waterways around New York (harbor) City !!
