Description:
‘Mike Nelson's single small photograph showing a row of terraced houses, one of which has a wall with a swastika design, is the kind of brilliant practical joke that makes the mind race. Was it done in the night? Did the residents know? If they had their own way, is this the kind of wall they would choose?’
