museum for real

so today i actually went to that museum. and thankfully i did, because my opinion completely changed. for the most part the exhibit was not interesting like i was hoping. but instead it was frightening. and damn i think im gonna be having fucking nightmares for the next few nights.
it wasn't the nudity that bothered me, that i think is completely fine. it's art. but what i don't like is the inflicting pain on your body. i mean seriously. this woman tried to see how much pain she could handle. she cut herself, let others cut her and who knows what else she did. all i have to say is, she's fucking crazy. more like KRAZY. but that is just my opinion.
one of the things that was shocking to me was that parents and grandparents were letting their four and five year old children/grandchildren see this exhibit. like seriously? if i saw it that young id be scarred for life. and even now i thought it was scary and im nineteen. but that's the parents fault. anyway.
what was most frightening to me, was the fact that she actually did this to herself. like i fucking love scary movies, they are some of my favorites. but they are fake. what this woman was doing to herself, and letting other do to her, was not at all fake. it was all fucking real. how does anyone do that? i have no clue. and the weirdest thing of all to me, was the fact that the artist was also there. she was sitting at a table, completely still, and the public could sit at the other end and try to talk to her, but she wouldn't answer. it was like she's an exhibit herself.
in the end i did not like the exhibit, but i did enjoy the Tim Burton exhibit.
