YES & NO

For this week's theme on expressive type I chose an artwork I recently stumbled upon. This typographical sculpture was created by sculptor and conceptual artist Markus Raetz. His art is usually described as being about issues of reality and illusion. In this particular piece, from one angle it reads "YES" while from another it reads "NO". This sort of plays on how the use of the word "no" from people can sometimes mean "yes" and vice-versa. I find it ingenious how he contorted these words and letters to the point that they were perfectly opposite. The type is used in such a clever way that is clear and literally expresses what it is meant to.
