Every inch of Grayson's childhood bedroom was covered with pictures
of aeroplanes, and every surface with models. Fantasy took over his
life, in a world of battles ruled by his teddy bear, Alan Measles.
He grew up. And in 2003, an acclaimed ceramic artist, he accepted
the Turner Prize as his alter-ego Clare, wearing his best dress,
with a bow in his hair. Now he tells his own story, his voice
beautifully caught by his friend, the writer Wendy Jones. Early
childhood in Chelmsford, Essex is a rural Eden that ends abruptly
with the arrival of his stepfather, leading to constant swerving
between his parents' houses, and between boys' and women's clothes.
But as Grayson enters art college and discovers the world of London
squats and New Romanticism, he starts to find himself. At last he
steps out as a potter and transvestite.
