Skywhale visits ACCA
The infamous Skywhale that helped Canberra celebrate its 100th birthday earlier in the year has made a fleeting visit to Southbank, taking flight over the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) during December.
The 34 metre long and 23 metre high Skywhale is double the size of a regular hot air balloon and is made from 3.5 km of fabric.
The balloon is a creation of Patricia Piccinini.
