This work involved seeking out difficult to get permission to board up Chelsea’s Grade II listed studio windows. Many of the passers-by asked what had happened to the window and did not recognise this as art. This work was a discreet but rebellious act of reclamation. By boarding up the windows I was physically and quite noisily taking up space, in a sense “squatting”, in a building and institution I don’t always feel comfortable or safe in.
