Hyperrealist Creatures by Patricia Piccinini: HK Exhibition (Hope); Original song

Подробнее о видео

This is my visit to an exhibition of Australian artist Patricia Piccinini's hyperrealist sculptures. The exhibition, entitled 'Hope' was held at Tai Kwun In Hong Kong

Patricia Piccinini is an Australian artist who is best known for her hyperrealist sculptures of weird and grotesque creatures. The creatures are often presented in scenarios that suggest feelings of tenderness and love. inviting viewers to think about things like:

What exactly is a human and what makes us human?
What makes someone (or something) deserving of love?
Why do people and animals and 'creatures' look the way they do? How does environment shape appearance?
Will scientific developments in genetics be used to create new transgenic species (The word 'transgenic' refers to an organism that that contains genetic material into which DNA from an unrelated organism has been artificially introduced)?

This exhibition also featured some of Patricia Piccinini's multimedia work, sketches, painting and more stylized sculptures.
