"It is with great sadness I have learnt that this one of a kind piece of artwork, to highlight the divisions in our society, has likely been destroyed by the Tate Gallery in London. As with other pieces I have donated, this was done in good faith so that the organisations can raise much need cash for struggling charities."
Artwork donated by The Hat has now raised over £7,500 for charities. This piece would no doubt have fetched in excess of £1000, which could have gone a long way to boosting arts charities in the UK.
