Monkey is a sculpture called ''Ancient Echo'' by Tony Matelli.

I thought that was a piece of art, but the one I was actually trying to remember is one I Can't Find On The Internet.

It was this bug-eyed chimp/Sasquatch creature, who looked very much like half a human, getting bullied by frat boys. Thinking it may have almost been pornographic. Saw it years and years ago, maybe on something like Fark.com or even the Noize Board. But it also may have been a cursed dream.

Fairly sure these are blursed though.

I had a vague narrative that buttcrack/keeper was arriving for a preliminary hearing after much publicized destructive incident involving chimp, hence t-shirt w/ messgage on front meant to humanize chimp/flatter judge, all v disruptive to chimp's normal routine, meal schedule etc

pretty sure i know exactly what you mean. it was like an exaggerated reification of the artist's inner introvert/loser, there was a series of images with the character.

Yeah. Wanna say there was a locker room one. Bad stuff, like where he was being pushed toward a girl who clearly did not want his attention.

Thought there was a vomit one too.

i vaguely remember this as well.

Their ability to taste sweetness helps offset their natural saltiness.

Thank u for that, mark s. See, bosses at the last four jobs I was fired from? I told you it was completely normal. I told you.

That counts in my book. Are the capital letters where blood was found, in an ascending order of what was detected first?

we need to see (F) the carpeting *inside* the bowl imo

mark s, Monday, 20 January 2020 10:38 (four years ago) link

lagging the cistern like that is probably a good idea - it's very easy to get condensation on the outside that'll drip down.

oh yes, the curator ask that images be sent him/her/them/whatever, and selects from that according to i guess "cursedness" -- one stipulation is NO SHOPS
