Piccinini's work often features strange looking creatures that look vulnerable and that are or are being cared for (or are caring for others). The works of art show here are:
(1) The Bond (a woman tenderly holds a baby creature),
(2) Sapling (a man carries a plant-human hybrid child on his shoulders,
(3) The Balance (a red motorcycle-like being with antlers made of rear view mirrors locked in an embrace with a yellow scooter-like being),
(4) Celestial Field (The three aforementioned sculpture were placed an installation entitled ‘Celestial Field’. in this installation, thousands of a flower stems hang from the ceiling and emerge from the floor like stalactites and stalagmites in a cave),
(5) No Fear of Depths (A hybrid of a human and a dolphin embraces a human girl)
The song is my own—it is called Creatures.
