More hype
That’s right, instead of people reflecting on the art industry and other problems that we have in society, they only started to talk more about that specific piece of work and Banksy himself. It turned out that the idea that Banksy had, to try and make his work worthless, was only backfiring.
If anything, this only made the half-shredded piece of work even more valuable than ever before. The woman who had bought it at the auction was probably pulling her hair out, thinking about how she should have kept it anyways. Because now, it was only going to double in value if anything else.
