a landscape film still taken from Babeworld’s ‘Derby Day’. At the centre of the image, a small blow up man lies on the grey floor in a corridor through a doorway. The smiling face of the man is distorted by the shape of the inflatable, and his body clad in a white t-shirt and black trousers is cartoonish. The low position of the camera provides a clear view of the stacks of DVDs, clothes, figurines, and yellow lighter also lying on the floor in the room before the corridor. Behind the inflatable figure, through a second doorway, part of a cluttered living room is visible.

At the top of the tile, a hand scrawled text reads 'There Has To Be Somewhere'.

Underneath these patterns are three artist's names written in the same scrawl as the top text, reading 'Emelia Kerr Beale', 'Rachael House' and 'Lucy Hutchinson'. Underneath this in a type-faced font reads 'Grand Union, 9–24 June 2023'.
