Works by Dan Tague.

With a political message in mind Tague re-contextualises currency for a new purpose. It is no longer desirable as an exchangeable commodity but has been infused with new meaning as a work of art, or rather 'propaganda'. He folds the money in such a way that a new message is born of the original text. 

"The many nuances associated with the dollar bill serve as an unrelenting source of inspiration for me as I fold the monetary engravings obsessively to reveal messages. These manipulated promissory notes take on new meanings as the messages are realized in the ready-made light of the U.S. currency. At the very core of this monetary narrative is the tug-of-war between politics and the pursuit of happiness. I address several of these very issues that are important to all of us: labor, civil rights, morality, conflict, and most importantly love."
