“Talking to the wrong person in the way they did—they could have given somebody a heart attack,” artist Kahlil Robert Irving told The Daily Beast. “I haven’t been able to necessarily sleep all through the night, and haven't really wanted to go to sleep.”
On Monday, Kahlil Robert Irving, an artist who’s logged exhibitions at Mass MOCA, the New Museum and the Whitney Museum of American Art, filed aagainst the High Line Hotel in Manhattan’s West Chelsea neighborhood due to an instance of alleged verbal assault and trespassing the artist says took place in January.
After showing the hotel employees his key card and the reservation on his phone, Irving, 29, managed to deescalate the situation, the artist told The Daily Beast on Wednesday.
However, Irving realized he would need legal assistance “after the manager of the hotel said that we couldn’t record the conversation that we were going to have with him,” Irving told The Daily Beast, “He said that if we were to record, he would have to escalate the conversation and the occurrence to the corporate level. I didn’t mind that, but I just knew in that moment of the conversation, that it wasn’t going to be handled or dealt with, that it was just gonna be swept under the rug.
