Oooh I like Valerie Hegarty, I just googled her and the campari commission was a good idea but the painting here produces a kind of shock of vandalism much better by pulling the painting off the wall and twisting it round, it's so dramatic the vandal has left leaving us a lovely organic shape. Yeah it's beautiful vandalism like nature does to a human made object left outside for a long time.
I just looked into the campari commission piece and yeah, it's a cool piece and interesting conceptually but I definitely find the image I posted here far more dramatic and fantastic - and when you go the site it's on and enlarge the detail image, you can really see the amazing put into the piece.

It's also like the painting has actually been in the waterfall.

Agree, Valerie Hegarty looks awesome - especially that twisty piece.
