Quote:
“The art scene is so wanky sometimes. And I didn’t like having to explain myself.” She goes on to describe her class projects in grisly detail. “I made this teenage bedroom wall covered in posters of Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez,” she says. “I spray-painted over it BRITNEY LIVES ON and performed ‘...Baby One More Time’ in front of it with a toy dog. People were like, ‘Riiiiiiiight.’ Then I made a Barbie ‘house of horrors’ where I decapitated all the Barbies and put animal heads on them, and they were ****ing each other and stuff. It was kind of weird.”
