Wet Letters



This happened a while ago, when there was a mystery mini-flood in the offices downstairs. It's one of my favourite inanimate things to look at right now. I love the strong, hard-edged letterforms and their swirling, organic dissolution, I love the yellowy echoing after-image. I love the contrasts and the sentiment. I love 'MANY THANKS' in a smaller face, flush left. I love that the evidence of water is so redolent of water itself- that something which evaporates without trace can be so readily traced.

Yada yada yada. Whtvr.
