40524839 hosts a collection of relics attributed to the historical figure of Joseph Bazalgette, a 19th century British civil engineer. It reimagines details of his personal life such as the death of Harold, his beloved chicken lost to lung cancer in 1848, and his son Willougbhy’s relationship to the Michelin company. The work designed as a cross over between the museum display and the cabinet of curiosity explores the levels of authority in different modalities of storytelling.
