Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

I mean, as Rob knows, it's not an instant mega capital market.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

It's taking its time.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

It's gradually growing.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

But that means it's kind of organic and it's going to last.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

But every, you know, it's a bit like, it's not the same, but it's a bit like the early days of the YBAs and 3s where you feel like another thing opens, another restaurant opens, another gallery opens and more people move there.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

So you can feel this development there.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

I'm just dying to see what it's like in 10 years' time.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

It's just going to be really interesting to see what happens.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

Some of these articles are ridiculous and are hype, and that worries people, I think, because it's like... And I get art collectors coming to me saying, I've really got to go to this Margate place.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

And I'm like, just temper your expectations.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

It's not... There are some beautiful streets and squares, but a lot of it's not beautiful.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

The art is good, and there's enough good art to see to go, and the restaurants are incredible, but it's rough.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

It's a mixed bunch of people.

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

There's a lot of poverty, and there's a lot of artists...

Talk Art
Matthew Slotover (Live at Maison Estelle)

I thought it was just the kind of down from London and the local people, but it's not.
