Artist gets $33,000 to look at women's bums

200x190.jpgA cheeky artist has been awarded a £20,000 grant to look at women's bums and peoples attitudes towards them.

Sue Williams, from Swansea, will use the cash from the National Lottery to create plaster cast moulds of women’s rears.

She says she will start off with her own, and hopes the project will help her understand how people see bums around the world, including it's "racial fetishism" in Africa and Europe.

The Arts Council of Wales - who issued the grant - say they just hope Sue doesn't make an ass out of herself.
