Last time I did it the cops didn’t take that excuse. You’d think doing it near a school would make it obvious it was an artistic performance too.

Artists have often gotten caught in trouble with the law, many justifiably so for having done generally bad things, still artists though

Yes the bar for what is art is so low as to be buried.
That’s the god damn point. Anyone can make art. That’s the whole damn reason uptight asswads get upset when something new shows up and reminds them of that fact.
What matters is what the viewer think, if they believe it art then thus it is.
