Through the Keyhole and the Looking glass……..

Yeah - rent a new place fully furnished and you gotta expect that the tastes of the owner are going to be evident in a lot of what you see around the joint - but this was a little much - this was a kind of through the looking glass experience - I don’t think I’m being a reserved stuffy Englishman when I say that the woman that owns this place has got some god damned freaky assed artistic sensibilities and may indeed have taken a lot of LSD at one point or another.... and she really likes horses...... an awful lot.

Yeah - there was a lot of Horse/Human cross-over porn around the house

“Hello!
I’m a freaky Dali-esque trumpet creature made of clay
about the size of a small child!
Welcome to my den of strange!”

....and here we have what every house needs:
a large clay creation depicting Siamese woodpecker lesbian twins

Alright - I did kind of like the disembodied monster hand candle holder

Weird, yes - but also:

Shit

.....and finally - a human-lily-lizard crature with a big fuck off beak - of course!

...and maybe there are a few of you thinking all this gubbins looks kind of cool and off the wall - sure it’s not exactly everyday stuff - interesting - weird freaky and a bit mental - but yeah, interesting - but would you want to live in a house FULL of this crap?? coz this is the tip of the iceberg - the place was filled with smaller clay mental projects dotting around the gaff - took me ages to hunt it all down - now the place is looking a little bit more like I live here - and not some nutty bag lady with a penchant for the Island of Dr.Moreau and a little bit of bestiality.
