As an artist I feel discouraged to showcase my art (in a legal way) to a country which clearly lacks artistic education, with the majority adorning their houses with Dallas 2000 kitsch. It also shows the level of spite the majority have towards the Piano project when they are ready to approve vandalism in every possible way.

Probably flipping burgers.

Thank god they’ve covered it up already.

I guess anything newsworthy must have been carried out by a “he”, unless it’s some form of Miley strip tease or royal birth.
