Day 148.2
1998–2001

A black and white photograph depicting a cluttered room with various items strewn about, including pieces of wood and fabric. The image has a textured overlay that gives it a distorted, almost ghostly appearance. In the foreground, a blurred figure of a person is visible amidst the chaos. The bottom right corner of the image includes the text "DAY 148.2".
