Maxwell Anderson visited the artist Darren Cullen during the final week of his south east London studio, before he was evicted to make way for an unaffordable housing development. Using a Metz flash, the pictures are reminiscent of crime scene work, capturing the studio in a manic state of flux, alongside portraits of Cullen amongst the chaos, still working in the space while preparing to leave it.

Cullen is an artist, illustrator and activist working under the alias Spelling Mistakes Cost Lives, making satirical installation and site specific work. His breakthrough was the installation Pocket Money Loans at Dismaland in 2015, and in 2019 he co-curated the Museum of Neoliberalism. He is commonly found holding his “Don't Talk To Them” placard behind blue-bib intelligence officers at protests and demonstrations. For his most recent touring installation, Hell Bus, he converted an old bus into a museum challenging corporate influence on the climate. He established the studio in a former high street bank in 2015, which later became home to the Museum.
