Sam Durant is an interdisciplinary artist whose works engage a diverse range of social, political, and cultural issues. In his practice, Durant repurposes the language found on placards by protest demonstrators especially from the social movements of the 1960s. The artist recently launched a new edition with Case Studyo inspired by his series of electric signs that the artist started back in 2017.

“The beacon of light serves as a visual reminder to be truthful to yourself and your loved ones and always Tell It Like It Is. The electronic light box screams for attention, making the message seem even more significant,” said Case Studyo.

Arriving in a signed and numbered edition of 25 units with four artist proofs, the functional work features the words Tell It Like It Is! across the front portion. The light boxes measure 60 by 54 by 8 centimeters and are housed in wooden packaging.

Purchase one now at Case Studyo’s website. Pricing details are available upon e-mail request to contact@casestudyo.com.
