A toy bunny, opened as if surgically, and containing a blanket of the same material, uses humor to propose a literalist investigation of “what lies beneath.” Blalock’s joke is flatfooted but also disquieting.

This darkly humorous visual in Lucas Blalock’s More Bunny – realized as a large outdoor mural – employs this rather unnerving situation to suggest that the truth behind photography’s surfaces may not always be what it seems.

PHOTO Australia respectfully acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which we work and live, and the rich and diverse Indigenous cultures across what is now called Australia. For over 60,000 years, Indigenous arts and culture have thrived on this sacred land, and we honour Elders and cultural leaders past and present. This was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
