This work was originally listed by OldJoe as part of the "Works Vol. 4" series. Empty? Or just a shell remaining? In a world where compliance is paramount, the refillable bottles of men's cosmetics become empty. As "men" groom themselves and consume the contents, refilling again and again, what remains when they are finally empty? Does the armor of a "man," the facade they've maintained, still have meaning as an empty shell? This philosophical question was posed to the world, and the artwork, which contained the poem "Finally" within the bottle, garnered over 200 views. The work was removed by the platform for the sake of safe and secure purchasing for consumers. However, at the moment of deletion, the art ceased to be a "product." The poem did not disappear. The deletion was proof that it had reached beyond understanding. As a product that violated the terms of service, it was banished from the system of "sales." But by being deleted, it was, conversely, further purified. It is no longer a product to be found in the market. "Deletion" is not the end, but the birth of art as a record. This work is an art piece reconfigured from the previously listed and deleted "Old Joe Vol. 3 – Hair Tonic Bottle." A flower blooming outside of understanding, Rejection. An empty 500ml hair tonic bottle. Inside is the poem "Finally" (currently not public, only accessible to purchasers within the artwork). Overview A still-life art piece modeled after an empty refill bottle of "4711 Portugal Hair Tonic." Sweet orange and lemon, and a lingering woody aftertaste. This container, which once held fragrance, has been reconfigured as an object that embodies the "blank space of scent."
