These small-scale paintings share a pictorial starting point based on covers of anarchist and communist pamphlets from the 1930s -1970s. The text-based information from the original book cover is no longer visible, leaving only the graphic design backgrounds.

The connection to the original book or pamphlet is made present in each of the painting's titles. However, each painting seems disconnected from its origin. The combination of the domestic scale of the paintings and their simulacra geometry raises questions about the possibility (or impossibility) of communicating ideas and political content through painting as well as the ultimate fate of avant-garde ambitions.
