Grayson Perry

Theoretically, Grayson Perry is my favourite artist. I don't like craft 'art', well maybe it's not that I don't like it, more that it's suited to your kitchen table when you're 65 sort of thing. That's a very rude thing for me to say so maybe I don't mean that.

What I would like to say is that someone who takes craft and makes it contemporary, is being wonderfully ironic and beautiful, Grayson Perry is the Goddess of this, known for his cross-dressing and ceramics what more could I hope for.

I don't think I'm a 'readymade' sort of artist and after talking to a very strong minded (rude) hairdresser I think I need to have a bigger collection of skills.


He won the Turner prize too!
