60 watts of love

Inspiration from an east London bar

We papered over the sun and replaced it with a red light bulb. Sixty pence of bulb for sixty watts of love.

This fragment was inspired by this caged light inside a toilet cubicle, at an east London bar that’s now closed. The toilets were originally covered in wallpaper, but were painted red a few years later – floor, walls and ceiling. You can see traces of the original wallpaper beneath the paint.
