		<description><![CDATA[This comes via Ben Myers of Faith and Theology and as usual with art I don&#8217;t quite know what to make of it. What do you make of it? I&#8217;ve been advised that art should &#8216;challenge&#8217; me in some way even if it&#8217;s downright terrifying. After seeing this particular terrifying sculpture online, I walked into [...]]]></description>
