On the side of his main photographic project during an artist's residency in Taipei in 2011, British visual artist Alan Eglinton spontaneously noted down the texts he saw on people's t-shirts in the street or in public transports. While he was surprised at first by the English spelling mistakes in some of these texts, he then found a sense of black humour and of abstract poetry in others. This collection of 296 texts is the artist's observation of a local visual culture that grew on him.
