List,

I have been a fairly silent member for a couple of years and have greatly
appreciated all of the knowledge and discussion about alt processes and art.
But I am greatly disappointed by artists who use torture as a form of humor
as per the following site's product link:

www.deadcat.ca/

Art is supposed to challenge, but today it seems that a lack of true
inspiration is rampant in our community and the world, hence many artists
turn toward shock, sex and torture in producing images.

Pedophelia (sp?) and abuse is most of the news today and stats show that
animal torture is one step away from molestation, abuse and murder.

Any one up for response?

Best, Leslie Shively
