I decided to restore 'Napoleon' after a widescreen festival at the Odeon Leicester Square in 1968.

 But then I started thinking, okay, well that's a part of you, but how do I put all of you inside of the frame? So to do that, I started making art installations. And this is one called "The Treachery of Sanctuary." It's a triptych. I'm going to show you the third panel.
