I cut my original sign design from clear acrylic, but this time decided to place it together without any colour or glue. The finished product is really hard to photograph, but it does look beautiful in person. It looks like glass or crystal, reflecting the light from all over the room.
It is a ghost sign, a whisper in passing rather than shouting in your face.
It is extremely hard to read so I won't be using it as a final piece - my intention is to be more clear and literal with my message. I think not being able to read the text adds a whole other dimension to the work. However, I will explore this method in the future as it does look beautiful and the idea of a ghost sign being silent or whispering could be an opportunity to say things I am too scared to say out loud.
