Frozen elk

I went to visit the Asia Pacific Triennial at the Gallery of Modern Art on the weekend. This was one of my favourite exhibits, a stuffed elk, completely covered in glass globes.

I also loved this huge mushroom-cloud-shaped sculpture of discarded metal – there’s even a trumpet stuck in there near the top.

I’m pretty sure I don’t appreciate art as it’s supposed to be appreciated – for example, this installation comments on Chinese history and conformity and so on, but I just think it looks cool.

Also in the it-looks-cool basket – this wallpaper. I think I may need to paper an entire room in the house in lurid blue paper.
