'A collage of four photographs connected to the location of the Tamart showroom in east London. One image shows a street sign fixed to a brick wall that reads “London Borough of Hackney, Garden Walk EC2.” Another photo captures the exterior of a brick building with large windows, featuring a white vertical banner that says “WAX” in bold black letters and a smaller sign on the wall -- just above the entrance -- reading “THE WAX BUILDING.” A third image displays a printed promotional sign, within the site, for the “tamart Lounge Bar,” which describes the bar as a mix of 1960s club glamour and relaxed domesticity, originally designed for a private members club, with details about Highgate High Stools, upholstered lounge chairs and the short three-minute film, "Powered by Love," being screened -- at regular intervals -- in the same room. The final image shows a wooden bar stool with a reddish-brown seat, placed against a cream wall beside the cylindrical corner part of what is a long bar, reimagined and on full display, all standing on this first-floor showroom's parquet wooden floor.'
