21. Tyson Beckford at Brickell City Centre

Piece description from the artist

Dear Tyson,

Remember back in the day when we had to reschedule filming at Brickell City Centre like, 100 times? And the time we had to fight with Saks over designer pants for your EAST scene? Oh! And that time we made you shave your beard? Haha. The memories.

Never have I ever seen more women consistently glued to our production set thru the day and night. And it certainly was not my deformed ears that got their attention. It was all you, Tyson. Pushing 50, yet the Chinese-Jamaican eyes still makes ’em salivate.

I must take this opportunity to thank you for your patience, professionalism, and making all the males on our film crew jealous. It was not smooth sailing at all times during this year-long project. But you stuck with us. Respect and salute.

Sincerely,
Xynn Tii
