Post -it Art

I like office supplies. Products that organise my life and make it more visual. In fact, I developed a habit of putting post-its up in college that outline the tasks I had to accomplish ahead. I even have the post-it notes app on the phone.

A Post-it note is a piece of stationery with a reusable strip of adhesive on the back, designed for temporarily attaching notes to documents and other surfaces. A low-tack adhesive allows the notes to be easily attached and removed without leaving marks or residue. Post-it notes are most commonly a square, yellow in colour.

There a number of artists who uses post-it notes as their medium. Rebecca Murtaugh is a known artist who uses post-it notes. She did an art piece by covering a whole bedroom by the notes.
I found myself naturally drawn to Rebecca Murtaugh'swork. As it is related to my work in a sense of posting things up. But she takes everyday pieces of our environment and turns them into Pop art.
