Actually if I read the grant submission correctly for the IncuBra, the two ladies managed to scam the government into paying for liposuction.

Dear Mr “Chester”,

Actually, research is everything before you decide to begin typing…..

As one of the artists who collaborated on IncuBra let me set some misinformation on its merry trip to your rubbish bin Mr Chester:

The two artists are – one woman and one man – not 2 women! The fat which was given to us as a “gift” from two OTHER artists was taken from their bodies via liposuction for a highly successful artistic project called Blender which they FUNDED THEMSELVES!!!What was that? They funded that project from their own pockets NOT with government funds and anyway – why don’t we complain when we get another bloody useless sports arena or have to pay for politicians chrissy lunches??

As for the fat cells: a tiny amount of their cells were set aside and given to us to use in this project (IncuBra) – we could have just as easily used cells from our hair follicles, from our mouths perhaps even from my menstrual blood? But, we chose the fat cells as it is a highly social issue and also throws a fly into the stem cell ointment debate as we can apparently gain access to stem cells from adult fat.

Mr Chester- complain about embryo misuse instead.

I also feature some serious even somber posts on “women’s issues”

Now seems like a good time to point out I think this missing link project is excellent, without reservations.
