a single hurt color vs. a chance to see a tassel,  from the “Tend Her Buttons” suite part 3 (video 5mins)

93 colours - Multiple edition of A5 card

93 colours are noted in “objects” (chapter one of Tender Buttons) sometimes descriptive, sometimes evocative.

In the video a single hurt color vs. a chance to see a tassel, the 93 colours and the order of their occurrences act as both backdrop and direct reference. Bringing the “Tend Her Buttons” suite to a conclusion and back to Steins original text.
