Thank You, Laura
In response to Damien Hirst’s new $99 million thing, artist Sarah Laura knocked off his diamond skull using 6,522 Swarovski crystals. And then put it outside his gallery in London, as if it were typical outside-of-gallery detritus. As much as I want to not care, I am imagining Hirst’s response. This is the same Hirst who sued a budget airline for knocking off his prescription dots. I can only speculate that he is probably perturbed at getting totally effin effed by an artist with only one name [hence, closer to God, Damien]. Link

I do believe the artist that reproduced the skull, was Laura. Not Sarah!

I love this, although according to all the other reports of this stunt the artists name is Laura!!!!
