Sure it borders on art, but it's a very interesting take on things that are normally concealed by the walls bursting from it.

It's in a gallery for christs sake and its obviously a light, shelf and drawer. please don't insult our intelligence. if you can't say anything sensible then don't say anything at all if it was actually a light that had been ripped out of the plasterboard or a shelf that had actually been pushed through the board, with the attendant mess, rather than objects that appear to have been ripped out of the wall it would have had some sort of credibility and i think i would have liked it.
