Tralee artist to make exhibition of herself

SOME artists boast of their body of work but few use their body to make an exhibition of themselves.

That’s what makes performance artist Sandra Vita Ann Minchin so unique. For the next few months she is having a copy of a famous Dutch masterpiece tattooed on her back.

She then plans to have the whole canvas — skin and all — auctioned to the highest and “most suitable” bidder.
