Through her sculpture and drawings, Patricia Piccinini re-imagines physical and biological realities and creates scenes that are at once alien and familiar.
Perhaps the most unsettling element at work is that the inhabitants of Piccinini's world don't seem all that far-fetched, given the doors unlocked by modern science. The sculpted children who appear in many of the artworks don't seem to mind their new friends at all.
