For some life lasts a short while, but the memories it holds last forever.

In memory of BL, SM, and KG. 16 and forever young, rest in peace.
A few years ago there was an "artist" who caused a stir with his "art" of Jesus on the cross floating in urine that was paid for with tax dollars.
So using that standard, I'd have to say this is art.
