Called Pieces is the title of an art show by Com, held in 2024 in Walkie-Talkie Gallery in Seoul, South Korea. The graphics of this poster series are not drawn but typed. Every element – the “COM” logo, the ramparts, the stage grid – is ASCII text entered one character at a time. Drag any part of the poster PDF and it copies as text. Typography here is not representation but medium: a cipher, a loading screen, a curtain. The image is the text, and the text can be called anywhere to come alive again.
