Paris

Whilst on my little holiday to Paris I took the opportunity to use my lacking photography skills. 

Firstly, Paris at night. 










View from La Tour Montparnasse: the tallest building in France. 














My favourite part of the trip was our visit to the Palace of Versailles, it was so beautiful. 













And, some others: 












LOVED it.

Alice Anderson

I found this article about the very interesting work of Alice Anderson in the Independent:
Independent/ Alice Anderson.
Installations are my favourite format for 'Art' to be displayed in, and I think some her pieces are brilliant. I think I mostly love that Anderson is more significantly linked to her work because it uses such a personal and familiar medium, yet it simultaneously repulses some viewers. 
What is it about other peoples hair we find offensive? It often isn't considered so repugnant when it is on a head. 





I think the image above is BRILLIANT.
