Nothing screams “ugly” like a prostate cancer cell. So who in their right mind would really want a lamp shaped like one?

Well, first-year visual art student Chloe Deroy has a friend who has called first dibs on the lamp she made, which looks like an enlarged image of a microscopic cancer cell – with a purple light bulb sticking out of it.

“She likes it because she thought it was well-executed,” Deroy said, “not because she has a thing for prostate cancer cells.”

The Asian delicacy shark fin soup is often served at weddings, banquets and important business deals and symbolizes wealth, power, prestige and honour, but demand for its main ingredient has led to the overfishing and rapid decline of many shark species around the world.

A visiting researcher will discuss his work, which he hopes will help slow that decline, at a lecture this afternoon.

Anyone who still believes going to art school is a whimsical flight of fancy that serves little practical purpose with few chances of landing a remunerative occupation should meet Gordon Frendo.

A graduate of UWindsor’s fine arts program, Frendo (MFA 2007) is the creative director of his own media agency and a living affirmation of the notion that artists needn’t starve to keep their integrity intact.
