The SkyWhale – Patricia Piccinini
Patricia Piccinini takes her art to the skies, constructing a hot air balloon in the shape of a whale, in honour of Canberra’s (Australia’s Capital City) centenary. It cost approximately 300 dollars to design and build this hot air balloon, and Canberrans are very divided about what they call an ‘ugly waste of money.’
What do you think about it? Below we have also included some other images of Patricia’s work, to give you an understanding of where she is coming from as an artist – she is into mutational art, and often portrays humans as part animal, and vice versa.

The Red Bull Stratos
The Red Bull Stratos mission carried Felix Baumgartner to an altitude of over 128,000 feet — 8,000 feet higher than planned — when the daredevil took the plunge into thin air. Despite a minor issue with Baumgartner’s visor causing it to fog up unexpectedly, the ascent progressed as planned. The New Mexico weather even allowed a picture perfect ascent over Roswell.

HOT AIR BALLOONS
Cappadocia is known around the world as one of the best places to fly with hot air balloons. The spectacular surrealistic landscapes combined with excellent flying conditions allow the balloons to gently drift over and between fairy chimneys, pigeon houses hewn into the unique rock formations, orchards and vineyards – through impressive valleys, each with distinctive rock formations, colors and features – and then float up over rippled ravines for breathtaking views over the region.
