She is known for her collages using text often on top of found images in a way that confronts the viewer raising questions about the conduct of our culture. Her work is often political without being prescriptive. She raises questions and poses problems for the viewer to think about, but often leaves it to the viewer to make up his or her mind about the issue. In this episode, we talked about the popular piece, Don't be a Jerk, which was first made early in her career, but she was commissioned by MoMA to make another version of it in 1996, and in 2017 it was printed on skateboard decks.  Learn more about your ad choices.
