I realize that yesterday's video of the Nick Cave installation might have been slightly off-putting to some of you. The War Lord rattled his saber a little, and opined that the whirling Dervishes yesterday might make for some fine cannon fodder. There are a few of those wooly Muppet-like creatures in the exhibit, but there are also some incredibly intricate and artfully constructed arrangements with flowers and tea cups and this fellow – every square inch covered in white buttons, sewn so tidily with orange thread. Alice would feel quite at home. Amazing. Hippity hop to the Norton!
