XY presents a series of disappearing money: “100%”

Car to drive, painting to look at!

For 3 year old money is like picture – scribbles, candy wrappers

“100%” – pictures are painted with disappearing paint – they won’t be a monetary investment but investment in self - just like a holiday outing is an investment in self- impression will stay with a person for always – this kind of picture has vanishing value- available only here and now in 100%.

ET BER Series of pictures about money. This problem was easy to solve as I didn’t have to search long – every time I looked up into my little polka dot purse I found: one euro, 100 forints, eight and a half zlotych and one jen ( could be a photocopy) – for good luck. Picture LUCKY POO – if you step in the dog poo it is considered good luck, bird poops on you (last year in Prague it must have been an eagle – crap the size of cow’s excrement straight on top of my head) – all for luck. I felt all warm and tender when I have seen a photo from Japan - ASAHI building with a great golden turd artfully lit on the roof. This picture is a quintessential relation of all my adventures with shit – if I stepped in, am stepping in and will step into it and if it will fall, fell on me many times – at least it creates a nice association.
