The third incendiary collection of stencils and graffiti from Banksy (after Banging Your Head Against a Brick Wall and Existencilism).

The still-life studies are a visual translation of the physical qualities connected with ownership, that of memories being conserved and a certain aspiration to capture meaning in our accumulation of retro material things.shines a spotlight on contemporary British life through the visual similes which Barry Cawston constructs between his Weston Super Mare street photography and the scathing sideshows of Banksy’s Dismaland bemusement park.
