"In a piece called Take That, the tables are turned on the group after they used riot police in their Brit Awards performance in February. The group were joined by dancers dressed in riot gear with batons and shields when they performed Kidz at the O2 Arena for the lavish show. In Cauty's artwork, Robbie Williams is depicted lying on the ground bleeding, while other members of the group look on as an officer hits Mark Owen. The artist said: "In the small world re-enactment, the police see it as trivialisation of their work and retaliate by giving the band a well deserved kicking."
