Please Come Back, 2008
Neon Sign
The text spelt out in the sign suggests both an intimate relationship  with its author and a situation of our past conflict and consequent  departure from some place, none of which can be fully inferred or  understood from the information supplied. A further tension exists  between the personal topic and supposed urgency of the text on the one  hand and the overly elaborate means of its display. A message most  suitable or likely for a private communication is here turned into a  public plea, producing a host of confusions and amplifications in  respect of its status and significance.
