Forget the Turner Prize - this is the Turnip Prize!

'Pulled Pork' by artist Chris P Bacon has won the 2017 Turnip Prize

12 year old artist, Chris P Bacon, has been named the winner of the coveted 2017 Turnip Prize.

The Turnip Prize is a competition that makes fun of modern art's most important award - the Turner Prize.

It is awarded annually to the best piece of silly art in a competition held in Wedmore, Somerset.

Organiser Trevor Prideaux was full of praise for Chris P Bacon's art, saying he was "delighted with the lack of effort taken to create this work."

Bacon says the inspiration for her work "came from my love of food".

The Turnip Prize receives tens of submissions each year, with entries from around the world.

Winners of the competition receive a turnip nailed to a block of wood.

Previous winners of the Turnip Prize include a black pole titled 'Pole Dark' by artist Plumsky and 'Tea P' by Bracey Vermin, which featured used tea bags in the shape of the letter P.
