A black polyethylene trash bag, folded and tied.

Trash Bag by 38

38, 2026

A black polyethylene bag, twist-tied shut.  Sold in rolls of fifty, for less than a dollar each, in every corner store  on earth. It might be the last object under capitalism priced the same  for everyone — no upgrade, no version, no size that signals status.  The bag under a billionaire's sink is the same bag under anyone else's.

Its only job is to disappear. Fill it, tie it, and its purpose is complete — built from the start to be thrown away, taking whatever's inside it with it, leaving nothing behind worth a second look. Almost nothing else is engineered this precisely around its own erasure.

This is an object designed to vanish. That's the piece.

How to Buy

This object is not for sale in the usual sense. There's no price you can click through — only an application. If you want to own it, explain why. Fill the buy button with words nobody else has, because whoever gets this doesn't get it by paying first — they get it by being chosen.
