#230: Mine alone to disgrace

A name is written on a wall (for example, Taylor Swift) which is protected completely by a locked frame.  The means to deface this artwork is placed in a locked cabinet underneath.  Only the person whose name it is (for example, Taylor Swift) has means to access the artwork and cabinet and they (for example, Taylor Swift) have an open invitation to come and deface their own name, should they wish to.

Swift, Taylor (2024) ‘But Daddy I Love Him,’ The Tortured Poets Department [602465081343]. US,Republic Records.

Although the title and idea comes from a lyric in the above Taylor Swift song, it is thanks to the above Laura Snapes article that this idea came about.
