maggots even again -maybe it was me who was the awful flatmate....but it was art college, and I had to come up with something..meaningful, deep even...it was the last night before having to present to the rest of the group.
Living with vegans at the time, I realised I had to go to some friends to create my greatest. I boiled a pot of maggots, they smelled - BAD, lots of frothy foam on top of the water, having to wash them well to rid the odour. I dried them, then started to thread them onto fishing wire, finishing off with PVA glue, to create a nice varnished look.
The next day people were trying on my necklaces admiring my handiwork, they thought they were wood, not necklaces of maggots but they did look good - honest...and who was I to tell them the truth
