It's an incredible exhibition Jonathan - here's my blog post about it and my shot of the croc bodice.

Fabulous first hand account Nicole - thanks for linking. I REALLY wanted to see the JPG show when it was in Montreal in 2011, but everything that could go wrong went wrong for me during that summer and I couldn't get away. I remember the reviews of his show were stellar and from the images you attached in your blog I can see why!
...And I bet that compliment from the man himself kept your feet from touching the ground all the way home!

Thanks Jonathan - it's such an amazing exhibition, perhaps you should come and see it in Melbourne? I'll be your personal tour guide if you like.
It's simply extraordinary: everyone I know who's seen it has been more than once, there's so much to see. I was thrilled to go to the media launch and the opening night - you would have loved it, it was the best party in town.
This "leopard skin" is entirely hand beaded. Unbelievable. If you're interested, I have lots more pics, it was hard to limit myself to the blog post so I've just been telling everyone "go, go!"
Over on the right, behind the leopard you can see a wheel travel suitcase - covered in fur!

It was an amazing show! I would go back in a flash if it came back here.
