TERRIBLE DEATH OF THE BASIC DESIGN (2017)

Made in collaboration with Paul Becker.

Inspired by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums’ ill-judged decision to install a vast image of Victor Pasmore and Richard Hamilton covering a whole wall of the newly refurbished Hatton Gallery, the film follows two hit-persons as they receive instruction to assassinate the celebrated British artists.

Produced in an edition of one and owned by a conglomerate, but please contact Sophie Soobramanien for screening and further info.
