Helft van een doorgezaagde dasspeld 1998

"Helft van een doorgezaagde dasspeld" (Half of a Sawed-Off Tie Pin) is a minimalist sculpture created by an anonymous artist in 1998. This piece, measuring a mere 0.3 cm in height and 6.9 cm in width, challenges traditional notions of art through its everyday object materiality. The artist's use of a mundane object, a tie pin, cut in half, provokes viewers to reconsider the potential for artistic expression in the most ordinary objects. Minimalism, Conceptual art, and Sculpture are key terms to describe this work.
