one hundred U.S. cents flattened by freight trains
1" x 14.4'
2008
A literal play on words, one hundred U.S. cents were flattened under the
weight of capitalism.
Each coin that leaves the U.S. mint is given a birth date or production
date on it's face, and by flattening them, each coin has reached it's demise,
collectively taking one dollar out of circulation.
The dollar is installed in a horizontal line extending 14.4' on a wall.
