A recreation of a 1920 Reichsmark note, produced using silkscreen and woodcut techniques historically associated with the reproduction of value, subverting them to reframe a document of monetary catastrophe as an art object.
The source material is the German hyperinflation of 1923, when the Weimar Republic's mark collapsed to 4,210,500,000,000 to the dollar. Borrowing Hemingway's phrase for financial ruin, “gradually, then suddenly”: the piece functions as both historical record and provocation, positioning the current debate around decentralised finance not as rupture, but as legible consequence.
