This piece draws on history in a number of ways, the beauty of the mass-produced object being one of the first things you notice. Each piece of clay tobacco pipe in the box is a piece of history that was lost and has now been found. History has a way of highlighting mistakes that have been made, making us question what we have been told. Chesterfield cigarettes once had an advertising campaign that claimed they were 'just as pure as the water you drink', showing that what we're told is good for us is not always in our best interest. Those who want to control us would have us believe the most farcical things to maintain their power.
