The Last Word
Illegal Art

 
 
  • The Last Word is a private moment for visitors to write what has never been said. Hundreds of tightly rolled pieces of paper, dyed red on one end, are placed white-side out on the wall. Participants remove one of the pieces of paper, write down their last word, and then replace the paper with the red side exposed. The public may write their own unfinished business or read how other people’s conversations might have ended.

  • Illegal Art, founded in the summer of 2001, is a collective of artists whose goal is to create participatory public art that inspires self-reflection, thought, and connection. Each piece encourages participation by making it simple.

  • Wonderspaces helps 100+ artists making public art reach new audiences.
