Grayson Perry


















*The tomb of the unknown craftsman at British Museum*

Grayson Perry is a contemporary artist. I didn’t know who he was and was not familiar with his art works before I visited .
When I was arriving in front of exhibition, one of his installation works was displayed in front of the entrance. It was a lovely pink and sky blue colour. It was an eye-catching motorcycle. He traveled by  driving a motorcycle with his own teddy bear ‘Alan Measles’ in Germany in 2010.
He said ‘ Do not look too hard for meaning here. I am not a historian, I am an artist. That is all you need to know.’ I like his way of thinking.I felt I even knew a part of his personality. 






















 when I looked at his art works. One of the art pieces I like is called “The Rosetta Vase, 2011”.
 Normally, when I think of ceramic like vase.it doesn’t interest me because ceramic is traditional and conservative art. However he looks at variety from various angles. He used vivid colours and painted interesting stories on the vase. It made it so attractive, interesting and it gave me an artistic kick which I would remember for some time.
