Go on then, spot the difference.

Got it?

Yes, that’s right!  The second image has been taken with a different camera from a different position in the room.  Oh, and if you look closely enough, you can just about make out that someone has stolen the 1m x 3m print of the Clifton Suspension Bridge off the wall.

Not only was this print my first large scale work to be hung in a public space (yay!) – It’s also my first work which has been valued highly enough by someone, that they wanted to pinch it! (Super double bonus YAY!)

Everyone around here seems to think I should be upset about the theft, but my ego disagrees.

Still, We’ve asked security to check through the weekends camera footage to see if they can spot someone leaving the building with a honking great picture of a bridge, but given that they’re more geared up for spotting people who park in the wrong parking bay – I’m not holding my breath.  I’m also keeping half an eye on ebay, just for a giggle.

Update:
Extract from the incident report, as filed by security – “No CCTV Footage” – despite them having to carry it past a minimum of 3 cameras to get it out of the building. I suspect it really means “we didn’t look very hard”
