One big room, full of bad bitches.
In order to help the public get inside the crusty minds of the artists featured in Septembers art sensation 'The Fish that bit Dad' a survey was done.
Each artist answered with integrity, and pursed lips:
What does the Fish that bit Dad mean to you? (were you there when it happened?)
Paul Kindersley : My dad almost got eaten by a shark- and i would never have been conceived- so thanks to that fish for not biting (too hard).
How were you raised? (Tell us your background)
Stephanie Homa : by communists..actually socialists, but english people see that as one and the same thing.
What is the message of your art?
Joana Cifre Cerda : Be true to yourself- follow your intuition- Do what you want and not what is expected of you.
Poland or Austria?
Stephanie Homa : I neither like my car being stolen nor do I prefer it to get locked away in some weirdos basement.
Are you any good at dinner? (which one?)
Grimes & Jones : We once made the lamb of jelly but in an unfortunate coincidence everyone had lost their appetite.

funny how Stephanie takes a swipe at the english for their 'one size fits all' view of the far left, then goes on to make two rather crass and sweeping generalisations about the polish and austrians! turns out irony isn't just a thing mum does to my shirts before i wear them.
