When I first read the theme for this season of Project Run and Play week 1 (Art Inspired) I was immediately stumped but not because I had no ideas, I had way too many. Classic? Modern? First nations? Urban? I love art in all it's incarnations amd my mind was reeling. So, I reigned myself in, what kind of art stirs my heart the most? Art that challenges something, preferably everything. Art that can make a difference. A sentence sprang to mind, "If graffitti changed anything it would be illegal." And I knew I had to emulate Banksy, and pay homage to his message. An entertained society is a docile one. "Give me liberty or give me death!" has become, "Can you pass me the remote, I don't want to get up."
Don't get me wrong, I love film, and though I don't have cable I watch tv online sometimes but entertainmemt is meant to be a diversion, it has become a passtime.

Very cute shirt! And I completely agree. Sometimes you go to someone's house and their TV is on non-stop and it drives me crazy!! Enjoy real life.
ReplyDeleteLoved your inspiration! I hate it when kids grow up with the TV's.
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies! I totally agree with you both. Having the TV on while eating is a particular pet peeve of mine!
