Jesuit missionary work gone horribly wrong
Wandering souls
This room drove its owner insane
Depressed, not depressing
Planting the seed
90s and neon...so on trend
Don't turn the thermostat up too high
Get your hand out of your pants, Sollie!
Censorship makes us crabby
Gives new meaning to "eating out"
No one knows just how deep it goes
Making the most of fire and brimstone
Only men can see this one
As close to hurtling through space as most of us will get
Walk on their faces
Experience infinity in one minute
The sweetest of portraits
Revolution!
Here we goooo
Unmade, smelly and dirty.
Classic Hirst
What lucky intern got to assemble these?
Calling all cynical pessimists!
Finally, a female gaze
Claustrophobics beware
"I like that queasy feeling"
Someone wasn’t paying attention in Sunday School
Monument to a bromance
Not even a little bit
Singin’ in a ring
Epileptics beware
Pretty sure they are laughing at you, not with you
A victim of the urban housing crisis
Too school for cool
Could be an ad for a Life Alert commercial
Shia LeBeouf, is that you?
But especially vices
Netflix and chill...with Buddha
One depressing miscommunication
A walk on the beach
Fancy birthday presents
A sedimental work for a sentimental guy
Marching to the beat of her own drum
A stoner's dream
A techy tower
He barely tried
What do Henri Matisse and Ellen DeGeneres have in common?
The artworld goes to seed
201 spheres in a big circus tent
Where Superman meets Sylvia Plath
Bless your heart
