Banksy is getting two birds stoned at once.
I think the shredding of the painting was to recreate in an aristocrat the feeling of that first balloon that drifted away when you were a kid.
I also think its a "Are you really spending money on this?!"
The faces in that crowd are going to make a great gif XD
Exactly, I love that analogy!
GIF in progress...? I couldn't find any video of the actual shredding.

Here is one if you are interested: Youtube I am having trouble finding one from a good angle that doesn't cut too soon though

Now onto conspiracies, this guy shows that the shreded image and the original image don't line up. So I measured myself since I was bringing it into gif format anyway, it seems to be offset by 20 pixels

The painting would have to align exactly where it was in the frame for that to line up, no?! Considering the massive crease at the bottom, the exit hole must have been offset (towards the wall) away from where it originally sat. Idk 😐
We’d have to look at the actual contraption...

I either need the contraption or to get a lot better at math. But I took some more measurements anyway. The is frame hiding 8-9 pixels of paper under the bevel total. Appears to shift 6 pixels on the left edge towards the right. The right edge appears to grow 14 pixels. Now I am lost on where to go to really prove anything but 14+6=20 pixels which is the offset I measured and seems to support the idea that the shredder was angled. Why do I click on conspiracy theories?! I need to go do something productive now XD
