    Great Talent

    If she was dowdy and overweight, as someone said earlier, she would have low self esteem and thus probably not be able to be as productive or creative as she is.

    Then again if I was buff like Brad Pitt, I would have tons of hot girlfriends due to my great body and my subsequently massive esteem.

    I am impressed with Jeremijenko's creativity, artistry, wit and talent and hope to learn more about her soon.

    Unlike the derivative or whiny second rate crap most female artists pop out, she seems to have lots of guts to go with her instincts and to produce interesting conceptual work that speaks to our times.
