r & j: the txt msg edition, 2008
Scope and Contents
This work by Elizabeth Pendergrass recreates Romeo and Juliet's balcony scene through text messages, transforming the scene completely. The texts are presented in an accordion-style book that is nestled inside an empty phone case that is itself, a Nokia from the 1990s, an anachronism at this point.
