I used this image as the basis for a proposal for a piece of public art.


It must be the best 'silly-season' picture of 2010. A paragliding donkey in Russia.

I'm fully writing my performance for Monday now, so not much time to blog, but here is an interesting link to a follow up story about the donkey that appeared in the photo.

I like the duplicate donkeys - the faked identities of animals with no interest in identity. W.G Sebald would have liked it, very Borgesian.
