MMMM NOTE was created by artists Sadia Pineda Hameed and Kerstin Kartscher to reimagine material representations of value.

Developed after research at the Robert Owen Museum in Newtown, MMMM NOTE acts as a speculative voucher from a future, where value is measured through irrational, ‘delirious’ modes of intuition, belief and conjuring.

The voucher is both an artifact and amulet for a world where value flows through collective fantasy rather than market demand, and rest is valued as a space of productivity and radical activity.

Drawing on Robert Owen’s 19th-century labour vouchers, this Billboard creates a playful counterfeit, deconstructing value as imagined rather than issued. Taking its title from David Medalla’s MMMMMMM…Manifesto (1965), in which the artist dreams of ‘sculptures without hope, with waking and sleeping hours.’.

MMMM NOTE is part of Perspective(s), a collaboration between Arts Council Wales and National Museum Wales, supported by the Welsh Government.

Crëwyd MMMM NOTE gan yr artistiaid Sadia Pineda Hameed a Kerstin Kartscher i ail-ddychmygu cynrychioliadau materol gwerth.

Datblygwyd MMMM NOTE yn sgil ymchwil yn Amgueddfa Robert Owen in Newtown, Owen yn Y Drenewydd, ac mae’n gweithredu fel taleb hapfasnachol o ddyfodol lle mae gwerth yn cael ei fesur trwy foddau greddf, cred a chonsurio afresymol, ‘dryslyd’.

Mae’r daleb yn arteffact ac yn swynogl ar gyfer byd lle mae gwerth yn llifo trwy ffantasi cyfunol yn hytrach na galw’r farchnad, ac mae gorffwys yn cael ei werthfawrogi fel lleoliad cynhyrchiant a gweithgaredd radical.

Gan dynnu ar dalebau llafur Robert Owen o’r 19eg ganrif, mae’r Bwrdd Posteri hwn yn creu ffugiad chwareus, gan ddadadeiladu gwerth fel y’i dychymygir yn hytrach na fel y’i dyroddir. Daw’r teitl o MMMMMMM…Maniffesto (1865) gan David Medalla, lle mae’r artist yn breuddwydio am ‘gerfluniau heb obaith, gydag oriau effro a chwsg’.

Mae MMMM NOTE yn rhan o Safbwynt(iau), sef cydweithrediad rhwng Cyngor Celfyddydau Cymru ac Amgueddfa Cymru, gyda chymorth gan Lywodraeth Cymru.
