While you're gone...Day 7

Exactly 1 week without the other half...not that bad...the place still in one piece...i'm not dying from hunger....as matter of fact..think i'm gaining weight...in 2004 the documentary titled Supersize Me was released...a tale of a healthy man eats nothing but Big Mac and fries for 30 days....
Seems like i'm making the sequel...eating only Oporto's for 2 weeks.....and i dun think i'm gonna eat chicken anymore for the rest of my life!! I've tried every conceivable halal menus in there and i'm sick of it. I dun mind cooking at home...but doing the dishes is another matter...btw..i did washed the dishes last weekend but 2 days later the damn dishes cropped up again like mushroom..think they are growing in there..
On sunday..i went to the art thingy bobby again..but in another venue...Cockatoo Island..the largest art show in the whole festival...it's a former prison...sorta Pulau Jerjak or Alcatraz...loved that movie - The Rocks....malaysian should have an escape movie too shot in pulau jerjak...would that be cool..
Anyways, i thought the art show gonna showcase some sculpture or paintings where enthusiast alike would disect the meaning of such art in a obnoxious manner...with a pipe in one hand and clutching catalogue to purchase such art...brightly lit halls with clean floors....well..it did not happened...the place is a mess.....the artist did not clean up the mess...to give the uniquness..walls with holes....dirty floor..it was freakishly dark...smelly toilets..imagine ur school toilet smell..its that kind of smell..
..dark hallway....its a place one can shoot a horror movie...literally scary place ur stranded at night....a deserted buildings with broken windows..it was different...
The art itself are pretty out of this world...there's one guy cutting himself with knives..and burnt his finger on a lit candle...it was self mutilation...i was squirming all the way to the end of the hall with each rooms have its own bodily harm...
They're some abt political issue..the war..the oil...the terrorism and capitalism..i do get this one
Then they're graffitis on the wall...looks like drawing made by school kids in the toilet...you'll get the idea..but instead its art...go figure....

I did not cover the whole place..coz the place is pretty huge..and it's getting dark..me don't like dark places..i took the next ferry out of the island...gonna go there again f i got the time this saturday....below some pictures i took....most of it are dark and impossible to be captured here....




Ppl are waiting to get the heck out of there...and i'm dumb enuff to go inside..











toilet seats can be art













a deserted lab...an experiment gone wrong...watch out for mutants









it was dark..so i'm not taking any chances...

(p/s : i messed up the alignment of the pics and text)

Mr Evil: I think you should get a tripod la. Baru boleh ambik gambar gelap with slower shutter speed. Nice shots.. The toilet pic is sooo artistic. Kalau dpt buat HDR gambar toilet tu, sure da bomb. Or at least kurang la nampak gross.

got a tripod..but too malas to lug around...hmmm..maybe i should get gorillapod....hehehe

Mr Evil: Gorillapods are cool. Tapi takut takleh nak support bila dah beli lens besar2 nanti. Other alternative, sambar satu monopod la. At least tak berat sgt nak carry around, boleh buat walking cane lagi. Hehehe.

Cheeky Pah: I bukan nak hasut hubby you beli toy baru yea..

ummi of triplet said...
