In Britain, if you hold a door open for someone behind you, as like as not they will pass through without a glance or a word of thanks. There is more violent crime in Britain than hitherto.

I think this photograph eclipses Warhol's Brillo boxes. I believe you were justified in causing a brief but necessary hindrance in the name of art. Just as Warhol persisted with a concept, you should be patrolling supermarket aisles with your camera in search of more discordant patterns.

Thank you very much, TLC. I may try a more adventurous supermarket, too.

Sean Scully the painter and sculptor wrote about the early influence of menial jobs in his work. “It’s about stacking, putting things in order”. In a cardboard box factory he loaded bales of flat corrugated cardboard boxes into a van. “They were really beautiful, the lines made by the boxes.”
I guess there’s something similar here, in that the photograph gives us that kind of visually satisfying feeling.
