The Limits of My Language Are the Limits of My World [maquette], 1999

 Item — Box 147: [Barcode: 31858072458007]
Identifier: CC-32223-33779

For this maquette, Tom Phillips hand lettered the text in the style he used for his text based wall sculptures. He marked design changes in small, red symbols. Each letter is linked to adjacent ones. The sentence of the title is repeated twice on each surface of the cube and hand-drawn on each surface of the wooden cube. The maquette is slightly smaller than the finished work that is also held by the Sackner Archive. The text is by the philospher Ludwig Wittgenstein. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
