一張上有我鉛筆簽名的 10 歐元鈔票,交付給 Irmã Feia*,一個葡萄牙(歐元區國家)的非營利藝術空間。

每張歐元紙鈔都印有歐洲央行總裁**簽名,與此同時,個人簽名被視為蓄意破壞並可能令銀行拒收。作品關注不同權力造成的定義差異,從「歐洲央行總裁/無民小卒對於破壞」到「藝術家簽名/鈔票序號對於獨特」。其文件遵從歐洲央行歐元紙鈔影像的數位複製品標準,那不符合之複製品將被視為非法的標準。

*葡萄牙語「醜姊姊」。
**在此,和作品製作時,為克里斯蒂娜.拉加德(Christine Lagarde)。

A €10 banknote signed in pencil by me given to Irmã Feia*, a non-profit art space in Portugal, a country of the eurozone.

Every euro banknote bears the signature of the President of the European Central Bank (ECB)**, while personal signatures are considered deliberate destroy and may result in bank refusal. The work draws attention to the influence of different powers on definitions, such as “ECB President/nobody on damage” and “artist’s signature/banknote serial number on uniqueness.” Its documentation meets the ECB’s criteria for digital reproductions of euro banknote images, criteria those who do not comply with which are considered unlawful.

*which means Ugly Sister in Portuguese.
**here, and at the time of creation, it was done by Christine Lagarde.
