THE FIRST SPARKFROM THE DIARY
APRIL 2025
“I want the work to be
more human and expire
just like we do.”
LEMONHAZE · APRIL 29, 2025

Before BEST BEFORE, there was a question about the time we have left. Then a message, a conversation, and a summer of making something that could live—and end.

Begin with the diary
THE WORKS

A life of their own.

420 works

Some are waiting to begin. Some are living. Some have already ended. A few never will.

Finding a way
to make it alive.

A summer of painting with code, from early texture experiments to the living works in the collection.

02 / EXHIBITION & PERFORMANCE

An opening.
A life. A finale.

A work unsealed in public. A gallery that keeps it until it expires. An audience returning for the last block.
