Sir Mixalot. Baby got back.
Kudos to the City of Wanneroo for putting some money into public art, but guys, if you put a sculpture in the centre of a roundabout, there’s a reasonable chance that some people are going to see the back of the bloody thing.

Maybe the other half of this one is in a round about in some other unfortunate suburb of Perth….2 for the price of one perhaps? If we found the 2 halves it would make a pretty impressive chocolate mould.

It’s being purchased on the buy half now and buy half later plan.
How long is it going to be before someone draws a scary ghost face on the back side *wanders off to find pen*

It’s art. How can we be sure which is the back?

There appear to be nipples on the ‘back’.
I think this is a deliberate ploy by the City of Wanneroo. Tourists will flock from distant lands to see the ‘Backless/Double-Fronted Lady of the North-East’.

Mez,
I think that most of the guys here have a bit of a problem with pretentiousness.*
A double whammie here with both the council and the artist presenting opportunities for derision.
* A certain Mr Hoey a notable exception.

I do wonder sometimes what the artists think about their work being held up for public dissection. I guess they can’t complain after agreeing to present the work and presumably being paid for it. Personally I’ve had a lot of fun reading all comments about art on this site. The contributions often reveal more about the writer than the artist. Perhaps confirming the role of the artist holding a mirror up to society.

They love it. Artist egos are too huge to be affected by amateur critics.

From what I can see it represents someone who is all presentation, image and spin. But behind them, is nothing at all… just hollow and no real substance.
