I'm in agreement with what Terence Dick wrote on akimblog
"Katie Bethune-Leaman’s work is also funny, but in a macabre way. As is her wont, she twists pop culture references in unexpected directions. Here she posits the corpse of slain rapper Tupac Shakur as a farm bed for mushrooms. A series of delicate drawings and an accompanying sculptural assemblage brings her musings on hip-hop fungi to light."
(please note it is much more fun to disagree with Terence Dick)
