Splif Bantom of Scotland Yard and his photos of crime scenes one year after the crime was committed

As well as being an artist Splif Bantom is a high-ranking detective at Scotland Yard. He has solved many cases including the Bewley Havant disappearance and the case that became known in the press as The Mystery of the Poisoned Shoe. But it is in fine art that Splif always wanted to have a career, and he has now managed to combine his two great loves, viz, art and crime.

”I return to the scene of a crime exactly one year after the crime was committed,” Splif explains. “I take one photograph and then leave as though I had never been there. My work examines memory, pain, and just how good a job has been done by the cleaners.”
