CHICAGO (Work #1370)
A vinyl record sleeve transformed into a singular artwork, bearing the word "CHICAGO" rendered in watercolour by Martin Creed's characteristically direct hand. The piece merges the visual and the auditory, pairing the painted sleeve with a 180-gram heavyweight vinyl pressing of four original songs, collapsing the boundary between art object and musical release. True to Creed's practice of finding meaning in the elemental and the everyday, the work exists as both a functional record and a unique artwork, each element inseparable from the other.
