Anonymous said...: So tell me Julia, what is so 'brave', 'artistic', 'witty' and 'lovely' about branding yourself with your centrelink number????

Why doesn't she just get a job and help herself, the community and society instead of being a waste of space???????

Like so many people who call themselves 'artists', what it really means is she has no talent and resorts to attention seeking as a means to justify her mediocre life.; 28 November 2008 at 9:13 pm

Bethany J. Fellows (born Tucson, Arizona 1983) is a Melbourne based artist. She graduated with a BFA from the University of Newcastle (2004) and recently completed her honours at Monash University (2010). Her practice is often participatory and usually cited in public and non-traditional space. Gift giving is used in her arts practice to emphasise the importance of relationships with people and place, as a cultural critique and as a metaphorical device for various things. Her work involves fleeting exchanges with others and frequently employs humour and food to highlight and exploit the tension of hospitable interactions with people and the unknown.
