The winner of this year's fake art award the Turnip Prize has been named - as a crushed beer can called “Bitter & Twisted”.

The annual contest is a spoof of the 'Turner Prize' a top gong awarded by the Tate family of galleries.

The Turnip Prize is awarded to the person who has created something that they perceive to be rubbish art - using the least amount of effort possible.

It was founded in protest following a 'Turner Prize' nomination for a woman's unmade bed in 1999.

This year's winner was Ali Can from Wedmore, Somerset.

He said “Whilst on a bike ride I was contemplating on what to enter and remembering I was robbed in the 2022 Turnip Prize final by some geezer from London.
