My favourite was this little old nude dude, rowing alone in a giant wooden rowboat/whaleboat that was quite oversized in scale compared to him. I think his famous 8 foot tall pregnant woman was in that show too, as well as a downright creepy one where a newborn baby was lying on the mother's belly, all gooey and still attached to its cord, staring hatefully into her eyes. I really dig the hyper-realist style when it's done right. Patricia Piccinini is another Aussie who does similar work, but she does these odd human/animal/marsupial/embryonic hybrid creatures:
