Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the blue neon is much brighter and more vibrant in the original, and the catalogue illustration fails to fully convey its fluorescent nature.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition and full working order. There are some tiny detached particles of tumbleweed that accumulated in the vitrine, in keeping with the artist's choice of media.
