An artist made himself a 'secret flat' inside a shopping centre and lived in it without anyone knowing for four years - before eventually getting busted and facing criminal charges.
Michael Townsend, 52, is an artist through and through and has devoted his life to his trade, making exhibitions for no one to see in an attempt to make sense of the world around him.
Like many in the art community in Providence, Rhode Island, Michael lived in historic mill buildings in the city that had been left to decay before being repurposed as low-cost homes.
