Scope and Contents
The image consists of a single word, Pornography, drawn in paint in the center of the paper almost as one would might expect in an illuminated manuscript. Dripping down from this word is a layer of muted powdered graphite that serves as a metaphorical contrast of the beauty of the written word and the intent of its meaning. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
