Piece description from the artist
Okay, so can we talk about that verbal altercation-turned friendship at British Museum? See, what had happened was, I wanted to capture a panoramic photograph of The Great Court. Because I thought it was so beautiful… Security thought otherwise.
Wait, backpedal. This was in the olden days, when I had a bulky ass tripod the size of Kevin Hart. So sneaking photographs with it was a full time job. And apparently you need a tripod permit at British Museum, so a social scuffle with these guys ensued.
But while making my case that I could produce the greatest interior shot they had ever seen, I was simultaneously capturing the panorama. See what I did there? Hold for applause. And British Museum ended up liking the photograph. The memories though…
