MONA Museum, Hobart

Spotted this little write-up about the MONA Museum in Hobart. I definitely want to visit sometime. This bit raised my eyebrows though:

Tattoo Tim, as he is called, sits on a pedestal throughout the day so museum visitors can view the tattoos on his back. He will be at the museum daily for at least the next month and will take guided tours once a day through the Delvoye exhibition. When he dies, he will be skinned and his tattoos displayed in a more traditional frame.

”That could be tomorrow, but I hope it’s not,” the 35-year-old from Switzerland says with a smile.

I hope for his sake he meets with a nicer fate than poor Drioli!


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
