I am unable to comment on who may or may not be banksy, but anyone described as being good at drawing doesn't sound like banksy to me

Banksy's denial of his alleged unmasking by the Daily Mail is pretty clever.

But if I was Banksy (and, PS, I'm totally not!) I would definitely be claiming the unmasking as a planted piece of performance art making a Barthian commentary on the keen interest in my "true" identity. The plaque next to the gallery exhibition would say: "Planted Unmasking, irony and photograph on news media."

This explanation would work even better if the Mail really nailed him than if it didn't, as I twittered today to my friend @metaeuphoria. Dontcha think?
