An unplanned visit to the Chelsea College of Arts MA Summer Show was a stimulating experience although, frankly, much of the work remained incomprehensible like so much modern art. One exception was this work by Regan O'Callaghan. My picture shows 'Te Waiata o te Huia' , video and sculpture. Our lives our full of strange connections and the description of this piece had an unexpected resonance with my travels earlier this year in New Zealand [qv]. Ko au te Whare te Whare ko au - Te Waiata o te Huia translates from the Maori as 'I am the house the house is me - the Song of the Huia'. I have used a square crop to emphasise the striking perspective of O'Callaghan's piece. 200_2_P1060525SC
