Zhenni's
The letters A, M, and I are symmetrical so it takes a while for the viewer to adjust to the fact that these neon letters are actually reversely placed. The viewer is on the "inside" of the artwork and cannot view it from the exterior. This piece not only represents how we're always on the inside looking out, it also comments on the difficulty at seeing what is wrong with not just the word "America", but also our country -- Thoughts from my first time at the Hammer museum.
