大英博物馆的金库里有八百万件艺术品，艺术家Grayson Perry在过去的几个月里翻找他的最新展览。变装特纳奖得主说服了伦敦博物馆让他通过从档案馆中挑选物品，并在他自己的作品旁边展示，包括陶器、挂毯和雕塑的中心件——一个形状像船的锈铁棺材，让他创造一个新的展览。无名工匠墓。Perry最近在壁纸上发表了一篇关于他即将到来的第4频道节目的设计讨论，他将这次展览的经验比作“未知的工匠墓”，这被允许在大英博物馆“疯狂”。他先把他收藏的博物馆的藏品缩小到一千件左右，然后选择他感兴趣的作品，然后继续寻找他偶然发现或联想到的物品。最终产品是他自己的30件艺术品，陈列在博物馆的170件展品中，从古代珍品到当代物品。随着主题探索的工艺和神圣旅程的概念-从萨满教，魔术和神圣文物到摩托车-展出的文物包括波利尼西亚恋物，佛教献祭产品，史前的手斧和凯蒂猫手巾。

佩里解释道：“我请你通过我的镜头阅读这些人工制品。”
“我不是历史学家、考古学家或民族学家。
我是艺术家，这主要是艺术展览。
我从BM集合中选择了对象，因为它们之间的连接以及我自己的工作。
有时，连接在其功能中，有时在他们的主体中，并且经常以它们的形式。
把我所有的选择都连接在一起的一件事就是我对他们的喜悦。"
