M22713.B: Tortured Color
PrintsA small, thin, clear plastic bag, one edge folded over itself and sealed with clear tape, contains two small square sheets of plexiglass and other small items. These include a single tube of paint, with some crimson paint having leaked out of the cap and down the side, four metal bolts and wingnuts, and eight metal washers. The paper backing has been left on the plexiglass, and four small holes, one at each corner, have been drilled into each sheet.
