It talks so many layers.
It talks, as you said, about the institutional power, but mainly it was a reference to the news because it was about seeing things in the news happening somewhere else and try to understand what people feel in front of that aggression, in front of that power being imposed on you.
where you can rehearse your reaction towards that event happening to you.

You know how it feels.
They were actual metropolitan police, and I was very lucky because somebody working in the Tate worked before in the police and knew somebody, and he loved the idea.
It was interesting because, as you say, they were very gentle.
They were police pretending to be a police, which is very strange.
They wanted to be nice, but in one of the occasions, one woman didn't want to move, and immediately this guy transformed his energy
He started pushing his horse next to her and the veranda and the balcony.
