The painting IDEA began with rulers, calculations and tape: reconstruct the IKEA logo, then make a D from the letters it supplies. A toothbrush paints the new word; matt varnish works it into the ground. An apparently exact commercial sign is made through ordinary tools and small decisions. The logo’s promise becomes an instruction to have an idea.
