She did an embroidery of the names of all the men she'd slept with as a
separate "work of art". A lot of embroidery is wonderful, but this wasn't.
There's really been some absolute rubbish classed as art, particulatly for
the Turner Prize - like Damien Hirst's (sp?) half a sheep/cow? in
formaldehyde (just show how impressed I was with that) or the empty room
with a light switch for the viewer to turn on.

Am I strange in accepting as art some of the "off-the-wall" things done with
lace in respect of materials, stitch arrangement or shape, but not a pile of
bricks or an unmade bed?
