Sierra Leone born artist Patricia Piccinini has almost certainly been called a 'freak' at some point in her career, and if she hasn't personally, then undoubtedly her work has ...
Piccinini works in a variety of media including painting, sculpture, video, sound, installation and digital media. She is fascinated with the 'distinctions between artificial and natural' and you only have to look at her work to understand her fascinations.
Freakish or not, I'm 'Pro-Piccinini', I've been following her career since I was introduced to her (artwork) back in my high school days and her exhibition 'Sandman' will remain burnt into my memory forever.
But I'll leave you to make up your own mind...
