As far as classics go, Deborah Halpern’s The Angel, my profile pic. I’m also fond of all the Mirka Mora stuff around town but I’m biased because I knew her a little.
I love billy connelly’s reaction to the angel. He made a point of visiting it every time he was in Melbourne. “I have no idea what the fuck this thing is. It’s brilliant!”
As soon as I posed the question I thought of you actually 😆 I’m glad we have a bit of Mirka’s stuff around, her work was so iconic and her painted W class tram (remember those?) was one of my favourites.
Miniest saw a W class tram doing the city circle route today and asked, “What the hell is that thing‽” I was a little shocked tbh; I love them the same way I love old trains, ships and firetrucks.
