Curator of Contemporary Architecture Rory Hyde next to the newly-installed installation by artist and conservationist Jorge Otero-Pailos. Entitled ‘The Ethics of Dust: Trajan’s Column’ it is made of conservation latex that has been used to ‘clean’ the hollow inside of the cast of Trajan’s Column, the largest object in the V&A. It shows the dust and dirt accumulated over decades in the usually unseen interior of the column, hanging in the space next to the cast. As part of 'All This Belongs to You' at Victoria and Albert Museum, Kensington Gardens
