MisMerch’d V2
MisMerch’d is a conceptual art project documenting items placed in the wrong place in grocery stores with accompanying musings on consumption, religion, politics, popular culture, love, life and death in the guise of sophomoric haiku. MisMerch’d Volume 2: Get Ready, Company’s Coming, is the sequel to Mis’Merch’d Volume 1: The Everyday Value Issue.
MisMerch’d V2 features juxtapositions observed during one shopping trip on November 27, 2019 – the day before Thanksgiving – inside the Safeway at South Broadway and Alameda Avenue in Denver, Colorado. All vignettes were captured in situ, exactly as they were encountered.
Published in 2020, MisMerch’d V2 is a 24-page zine printed and bound by hand in Denver, Colorado. The covers are printed on 100# French Madero Beach Speckletone with a letterpress title printed in neon red ink on a Chandler & Price Craftsman press.
