A few weeks back Michel, Linus and I, plus Michel's sister and her boyfriend went to a wonderful exhibition in Amersfoort. It was called Wonderland, Through The Looking Glass and showed a very diverse selection of imaginative art.
These paper figures seemed so carelessly put together and yet they were so life-like.
The two most impressive pieces were two incredible realistic creatures by Australian artist Patricia Piccinini.
I couldn't keep my eyes off them. It reminded me so much of when I first saw Ron Mueck's work a few years ago.
There were many more surprising and wonderful things to see there. I'd really recommend a visit if you live anywhere near. You can see some more photos here.
Michel's sister and her boyfriend fiancee went back home to Australia today. It's always sad to see them go, because we quite literally live worlds apart. However, even though it may take us a while, we have made definite plans to go and visit them in Australia!
