Goodbye Receipts / Hello Receipts

Francesco Zorzi

Imagine we wake up one day and everything is di erent. To adapt to the change, we would start reinventing ourselves; reevaluating the purpose of the things around us, finding new meanings and new beginnings in what is now obsolete. Goodbye Receipts/Hello Receipts is a goodbye to thermal paper of the age of cash registers and cheap, fast reproductions, and a hello to thermal paper as a tool for artistic expression. The material that marked an era has been taken out of its initial context and is presented here as a large scale exploration, revealing the expressive potential of its inner colours. — Goodbye Receipts/Hello Receipts: A goodbye to thermal paper of the age of cash registers, and a hello to thermal paper as a tool for artistic expression related to color and visual research.
