This afternoon I went to the Shift exhibition at the #CanterburyMuseum in Ōtautahi-Christchurch, NZ.

The museum is undergoing a massive renovation and has been stripped out of all its exhibits and staff. Before it gets closed, street artists from NZ and overseas were invited to coat all of the museum interior in #UrbanArt.

It's an *amazing* experience, and it closes tomorrow (11 April). I totally recommend it if you're local.

A bunch of other neat things...

This one from ROA (who also painted the Moa one of the outside of the building several years back) is such an innovative idea!

Remember to try moving the doors!

Here's another of my top 5 exhibits, located in the room right next to the previous one: "The Tui Room" (my name for it)

It's literally a darkened room, with one wall filled with two large clusters of purple Tui (and 3 small canvas paintings of clouds in the middle separating them).

Much more impressive in person.

Here's my favourite exhibit.

From what I could find, it looks like this was made by Mike Beer (ghostcat), maybe with help from Nick Lowry (https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn7qbR9ST8c/?hl=en)

It's upstairs near the Discovery Centre, right beside the Tui Room (one of my other favourites)
