A discarded cutlery drawer is lined with a section of my family tree. Set into it is part of an old Royale typewriter which has been dismantled. The letters and symbols on the keys of the typewriter have been replaced with photo portraits of five generations of my family. Below this further parts of the typewriter have been attached, in a manner intended to reference the predella on an alterpiece.
