Artwork made from diverse product labels by Troy Dugas.

Top and bottom: “9,” various product labels on paper, 59 x 59″.

Notes from the artist:

My work is made from product labels I purchase in unused bundles. I cut and arrange this material onto flat surfaces (paper, canvas, or wood) to produce artworks that appear woven. I use repetition and pattern to distract from the original purpose of the label to sell a product. The artwork itself is the only product left to sell.
