Leandro Katz: Lunar Sentence II, 1980. Created using an ‘invented alphabet made with photographs of the faces of the moon.’
It reads:
“WHEN WE PULVERIZE WORDS, WHAT IS LEFT IS NEITHER MERE NOISE NOR ARBITRARY, PURE ELEMENTS, BUT STILL OTHER WORDS, REFLECTION OF AN INVISIBLE AND YET INDELIBLE REPRESENTATION: THIS IS THE MYTH IN WHICH WE NOW TRANSCRIBE THE MOST OBSCURE AND REAL POWERS OF LANGUAGE.”

I stood in front of this and was silent for a long time and stuff felt fine.
