the artist

the artist is one who cannot work alone he relies on his peers to substitute his lack of talent. the artist does things which are against the grain the artist is not necessarilly a he but s/he looks silly the artist exhibits in places that other people have forgotten the artist uses unusual materials, waste, pus, flesh, bones, his own piss the artist is anything but orthodox

the art

the art adresses alot but says little the art is unbearably strange/shocking/defamatory/irrelevant the art encapsulates the space the art has a life of its own

the beret

the artists beret keeps his brain from flying out the top of his rather soft and squidgy cranium what makes for a good beret is high quality wool and a cavalier attitude to life the artist denies responibility for any hat "it wasn't me he said blame the beret, I'm just a patsy!"
