Maybe everything will be alright if you are not on crack!

The artwork’s inherent (and no doubt intentional) ambiguity is really highlighted when it’s installed this close to Main and Hastings…

Seems like a take on advertising—instead of an advertisment of a product coupled with the effect/message of the product (Miller Light® “Tastes great/Less Filling…etc.) We have just the message; which placed in Detroit (its former home) is ironic.
Reminds me of Jenny Holzer & Lawrence Weiner.
