Things I don't get

I don't get excrement as art.

I have been told that the artist uses ugly materials to show that there is beauty in everything, and I have been told that I need to look beyond substance to see the form and composition. There are also symbolism issues that have been explored in more ways than I can think of.

Artists need to be able to express themselves in ways that reveal their vision and emotion to the rest of the world. Artists should not have to limit themselves to the socially acceptable or mainstream ideal. Art is meant to push the boundaries and make people ask questions.

All of this does not disguise the fact that its sewage. Waste. Shit.

I don't get it.

But it makes somebody happy
