Scope and Contents

Composed of four square panels which are connected vertically by colored cloth tapes allowing them to fold over. On the first panel, Share has fashioned a poem from the wooden tiles of the game, Scrabble, that is reflective of Gominger's constellation poem, Ping Pong, and collaged the tiles to the game board. The remaining panels contain collaged printed and photocopied colored images relating to the theme of bells. The word, Bell, is written several times on the second panel. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
