And, finally, a non-painting. Getting photographs of this piece was not easy, since it filled up the whole room. It's called "Attic Basement Garage" from Matt Lippiatt, and the influence is clearly horror movies, particularly Night Of The Living Dead. I thought of asking a "real" person who was walking through to stand in the middle, as still as possible. But then I thought, hmm, no, that would be me creating my own art, not representing someone else's. Maybe one day, when I'm an artist. But not when I'm a journalist.
