The blond(e) looks like (s)he is wearing something made from sackcloths.

Why do you need an interpretation?
Pretentious carp, like wine tasting.
Years ago art experts were presented with splashes made by a chimp and the 'experts' gathered to explain exactly what the 'artist' was trying to convey.

Nothing more than splashes made by monkeys.
Similar experiments made using cheap supermarket wines substituted into expensive wine bottles and presented to 'wine experts'.

Nailit; what makes your view of art in any way valid? Have you ever studied or practised any art (by which I mean creating stuff)? If you said a brickie was carp but didn't have any experience yourself, and you didn't explain what was wrong (e.g. his bonding, pointing, levelling etc), why should your view be worth anything?

Beauty and the beast, by Simone aged ten.

[Atheist]

It seems to me that the only value that art can claim nowadays is whether or not the 'artist' can make (or have made for him/her/it...) something with no utility or inherent quality that sells for money or fame, whatever the product is. It all started with the urinal, and has gone on from there. It's just a money-making game (it always was, but at least the paying customer used to get a good ceiling or tomb out of it, not just a 'set of emperors new clothes').

Its carp....

What makes YOUR view valid?

[Mamyalynne]

My initial interpretation was of someone holding a severed head until I looked anew.

I can't put my finger on it but it seems out of proportion.

Have you?

[Atheist]

Nailit, i've written and performed songs, I've painted and sold pictures, I'm currently writing a novel. I've never made big money from any of those activities.

[Mamyalynne]

Everyone's entitled to voice their opinion whether they are artistic or not - don't think one's appraisal needs to be littered with 'crap/carp', it rather lowers the tone.

[Atheist]

If you try it, you learn a little about what's involved. But at the end of the day it's about what you can sell, so someone like you with no experience of doing it (or perhaps you have?) is perfectly entitled to have a view; after all, it's your money they're after. I mean, look at all the wealthy patrons in history - popes, emperors, Saatchis.....

[tiggerblue10]

It's a bit nightmarish.

[nailit]

Its still a bit like a paint by numbers. (And not a very good one at that)
But if some idiot has got money to throw away then thats their prerogotive.

A human balut egg (do not look up a picture of a balut egg if you are squeamish)

Shows the dream of an unborn man, and their unbiased interpretation of love.
