Is she real?

While in Brisbane, I also caught up with Garth and Florane and picked up my things that I had put in storage under their house. I owe them great thanks for helping me travel lighter.

Today I made a 'culture day', visiting the Brisbane Museum, the Queensland Art Gallery and the Gallery of Modern Art. What you see in the photo is a larger-than-life sculpture by the hyperrealist artist Ron Mueck, titled "In bed" (2005). And the schoolchildren kept asking "Is she real? Is she real?"

She really looked so real.
