Consummation Breakdown is a book with two front covers which THEREFORE offers two-directional reading. If read following one of the covers, this book shows the facsimile of a chronological arrangement: ordinary till receipts collected by the artist AND folded over the bottom of the right page, concealing the last bit of information WHICH IN TURN shows on the the left page overleaf. Flicking the pages backwards and upside down (following the other cover), one can read an index of phrases terminating each transaction, on the corresponding upright ends of each receipt.
