B.T.W.I.T.I.A.I.L.W.Y.

Realized in its first iteration in 2014, B.T.W.I.T.I.A.I.L.W.Y. is a neon wall sculpture featured in Hovnanian’s Acronym Neons series that centers our new digital language of acronyms. This sculpture explores the ways in which our cultural expression of affection has been transformed and shortened into acronyms. We express our love for those in our lives quickly now, almost abruptly, in such a way that our sentiments are imbued with new meaning - is it the same as it has been?
