"Grocery List" exemplifies Diaz's continual engagement with text. Diaz began working with text in the late 1990s with conceptual, campy, and political cardboard signs that he sold on the streets of Manhattan. From there, text became a staple in his work to explore art as a form of entertainment, activism, public intervention, and free enterprise.
