Grayson Perry

Grayson Perry is an English Artist who bases his work on capturing the lives and background of people and making a detailed piece of artwork on them

Running on channel 4 Grayson uses his artistic talents to firstly explore the person ie; what makes them unique/how they've lived their lives and after a matter of months produces a variety of different work for each person. One of the individuals named Jaz was going through a terrible time with the changing of gender, Perry spent time with the individual and learnt what he was struggling with! The final outcome of work was displayed in an art museum miles from their house! 

I learnt that appearance and personal life can be hard and you may be struggling but if you have people around you(whether that be celebrities or friends) you can achieve wonderful things! Also the overall show allows you to figure out who you are and forms your true identify!


Personally I think the idea of the show is amazing as it tells us to be ourself and not worry about others opinion! Grayson Perry really grabbed our attention with the emotion within the series.
