Matron clearly gives him her ‘experimentals’. More like ‘mentals’.Day room? I haven't made it out of my pit yet! Normally I get about 5h sleep, same today, but I rolled over and pretended it was night still. Needed that. I went to sleep listening to a DJ I follow on Mixcloud and lasted until about 2am. I woke up at 7 (or what passes for 7 on clock day) only to find the mad git was still up drinking and playing vinyl to the internet! How does he survive on no sleep?!
This might look like just some fruit gaffer taped to a table to you, but actually it's an angst-ridden piece of social commentary on gender as a fluid construct. Do the oranges represent real boobs, ersatz puppies or cojones grandes? Is the banana a smile, or a symbol of phallocratic oppression? Perhaps consider the wrinkled nature of the tape as a reflection on the age of the artist, or its pendulosity a reminder of the bra, and therefore another symbol of the subjugation of the female and their struggle for suffrage?
Or is this just juvenility and a thumbing of the nose to pretentious art school types and social media keyboard warriors. Discuss. See you at the Tate Midden.

Sorry, please may I have an apple instead? I like bananas but oranges are a pain to eat sometimes. Besides apples are my favourite.This might look like just some fruit gaffer taped to a table to you, but actually it's an angst-ridden piece of social commentary on gender as a fluid construct.

Sorry Da…A fruit is for pudding, not just for art students. Ye can't have an apple if ye don't eat yer meat. How can ye have an apple if he don't eat yer meat? Stand still laddie!
There are several download options here, on archive.org, sourced from the Digital Library of India.If you want to know what went wrong with art, I highly recommend Wyndham Lewis's 'The Demon of Progress in the Arts' (if you can find a copy)
