A pair of Damien Hirst anamorphic demitasse sets from the Tate Modern gift shop in 2012.

On the afternoon of Thursday June 21, 2012, I purchased a pair of Damien Hirst Espresso Cups & Saucers from the gift shop at the Tate Modern. I’ve been a fan of the bad boy of British art since the 1990’s, so I just couldn’t pass up the chance to check out this mind-bending survey of his works against the backdrop of the 2012 Olympics. Earlier that morning, I met a video game recruiter outside the Great Portland Tube Station to discuss a job with a Harry Potter augmented reality game for the Playstation 3. I didn’t get the job, and I was running out of money. I still bought the cups.
