In Eve's words:

In 2010, I read Gertrude Stein’s Tender Buttons. I was moved by the  queer, coded language in both this text. The  language felt like messages being transmitted across the span of a  century, open secrets only other queers might catch. Concurrently, I  had noticed the ways that communities all over Los Angeles would communicate through physical signs. Colorful posters hung on telephone  poles, or were wheat-pasted on buildings, letting blocks know about  concerts, boxing matches, and other events. I started visioning a public art project, a way to share Stein’s works, a way to play with  signs proclaiming poetry and queering language in and for public  spaces. I made a suite of Colby posters of Stein’s work, playing  with graphic lettering and bright popping color and hung them around  the city.
