Threadneedle Winner

Here's the winning entry for the £30,000 Threadneedle Prize: Ben Greener's My Feet (2012) made from wood and canvas stained with tea and coffee (CLICK). £1,500 for this? The £10,000 Visitors' Choice award went to Robert Truscott's Defeat, a line of captured German soldiers during the battle for Stalingrad. It reminds me of John Singer Sargent's column of blinded soldiers in Gassed (1919).
