Patricia Piccinini and her skywhales
Konrad Marshall's January 2021 cover story 'A wonderful thing: what inspired Patricia Piccinini’s biggest creation yet' looks at globally recognised Australian artist Patricia Piccinini in light of her latest creation, the gargantuan hot air balloon known as Skywhalepapa, commissioned by the National Gallery of Australia. Konrad is joined by the artist in conversation with moderation by Good Weekend editor Katrina Strickland, to talk about both the emotion and criticism her surreal work engenders.
