Myra Moss & Pete Brady…
… or is it Kate Hindley and Ian Doherty?
Kate Moss and Pete Doherty have been turned into the notorious moors murderers (Myra Hindley and Ian Brady)
by Yorkshire-born artist, Russell Young. Images of the couple have be superimposed on the original image, or photo-shopped, if you want to use the correct term for messing around with other images.
The pictures were on display at the Art Fair in Islington, North London and now all four images have been sold allegedly for £28,000. The work is supposed to be an observation on the self-destructive hedonism of some of Britain’s biggest celebrities, personally I can’t decide who is worse, the artist who created this, or the idiot who bought it.
Even controversy should have its limits and If there are lines that probably should not be crossed, then this one has definately overstepped the mark.
