The judges said: "[Toby Tripp's] series of collectable, themed one-offs are as maddeningly impossible to categorise as they are brilliantly executed. Part art, part poetry, part entertainment and part something else altogether." |

| ”Toby
Tripp is in a class of his own. They won't let him with the other kids…
prolific, monstrous, genius oh and there’s a few dark bits as well.” |

“Funny
was broken, and Tripp fixed it. Funny was cold, and Tripp took it in.
Funny was desperate, and Tripp fucked it for £15 and a travelcard.”
