Grayson Perry: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Girl

View through CrossRef
This chapter explores the life of Grayson Perry, who was the first transvestite to win the Turner Prize in 2003. It cites that Perry sees bondage and cross-dressing as holding a similar appeal to freedom, referencing the game he created in correlation to his inner sanctuary. When his family found his transvestism, they all erupted in virtuous disgust to the extent that Perry was kicked out of his home after applying to an art-student course at Portsmouth Polytechnic. The chapter cites how Perry indulged in treating art as work, LSD, fame and fashion during his time in college. It notes how Perry used pottery as a mode of self-psychiatric medication.
