Aeneas: 'The gallery is situated on the outside of the bar de Schouw and is therefore in the public sphere. The text was a translation into dutch of the phrase \"in case of emergency break glass\". Behind this text was a piece of graffiti, a copy of the only piece of graffiti in the gents toilets of the bar. The graffiti shows a flower and the text No Border(sic) No Nations. During the week long exhibition, no one smashed the glass, so I made the symbolicdestruction of the gallery on the last evening of the show.'
