The premise

The symbols a business is built on, made physical.

Currency symbols are among the most looked-at marks in commerce and among the least looked-at objects in a building. Sovereign takes twelve of them and treats each as a subject in its own right.

For an institution whose work is money, movement or exchange, the collection states what the business does without a word of copy. It is acquired as a commissioned environment rather than as a gallery acquisition, and it is priced on that basis.

Terms

Availability

Available as a complete collection to a single institution. Individual works and subsets are available by negotiation.

Exclusivity

Original works, not editions and not reproductions. The concept exists once and the collection will not be extended.

Disclosure

Imagery, dimensions, pricing and the full collection overview are released under mutual NDA to verified counterparties.

Valuation

The firm makes no representation as to resale value or secondary market performance. An independent valuation will be commissioned following the first placement.
