Note: Tim Noble and Sue Webster are an artist duo who take a range of everyday objects waste items, scrap metal and transform them into artworks. They are particularly interested in the way in which viewers recognise familiar forms and apply clear meaning to abstract arrangements of shapes and colours. They principally play with this concept through the medium of sculpture and projection, replicating the way in which the viewer projects their own thoughts onto the materials of an artwork. In this context, this piece is emblematic of the artists principal approach, through which Noble and Webster contrast extremes of high art and base images to shock and engage all who see their work. This artwork clearly demonstrates its inheritance from the works of YBA artists such as Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin, whose influence on Noble and Webster has been noted by a number of commentators.

Their work has been exhibited at the British Museum and the Royal Academy in London, and is held in a number of public collections around the world, including in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the National Portrait Gallery in London, and the Arken Museum of Modern Art in Denmark.
