All sheets of two packages of white office paper were lined by hand so that the result would be nearly impossible to distinguish from standard pre-printed squared papers. The first package contains the most common european paper format A4, the second package contains the most usual american paper format Letter. For the A4 format was used common european squared structure and for the Letter format common american squared structure. Formats and structures are derived from measures used in these two geographical spaces. Blank paper received an order of its own. Although the paper area was filled up we can still perceive it as empty, as a table, that only determines the way of a possible filling up in the future, as an arrangement of empty space, organization in the most general sense of the word. The exact order is disturbed by the human factor: although all drawings are identical, each is an original in its minute imperfections. The drawing medium is a blue ballpoint pen, the most ordinary office utensil. The result is an incomparably more laborious version (imitation) of a common utilitarian material.
