Tower of Babel 5
From the V&A's website: "The Tower of Babel consisted of 3,000 individual bone china buildings, each measuring 10 – 13cm tall and depicting a real London shop. Barford photographed over 6,000 shop fronts in the process of making the Tower, cycling over 1,000 miles to visit every postcode in London. The photographs were created as ceramic transfers and fired onto fine bone china to produce the individual shops.
The Tower reflected London’s society and economy, inviting visitors to view themselves as consumers. At its base the shops were derelict, while at its pinnacle were London’s exclusive boutiques and galleries, with the Tower appearing more precarious towards the top."
