iron man

You really should get a medal of honour for doing the ironing. It's boring, repetitive, and soul-sucking unless accomplished while standing in front of the telly watching Cranford on DVD. Artist Wim Delvoye clearly agrees, so he's created a series of 12 ironing boards painted with quite fearsome coats of arms, possibly to bring a little heroism and bad-assness to the whole affair. Finally a nod to the valour of ironing. It couldn't have come too soon.
