Today's class at uni consisted of me hiking to the city to our art gallery NGV across from Flinders Street Station. I'll be honest I wasn't keen on looking at art and walking around for ages but I think I forgot what it was like to take a moment out of our busy lives to just take in the atmosphere. I almost forgot to appreciate what a beautiful city Melbourne was and the MelbourneNow exhibition is something that really explores the reasons why it is so unique. I think we really do take for granted what a beautiful city we have and this exhibition was just something that goes to show how captivatingly appealing it is.
Most of these artists have taken a more modern approach to presenting their perspectives on what makes Melbourne unique. I found that these pieces were more targeted towards an audience that are younger, teenagers and early adults where quirky films and street art meet the eyes of this age group.

In the art gallery we were given bird stickers to actively participate in the wall decor art. We had to stick the birds onto the wall. There were some that were deliberately made to look like branches of trees, goes to show if we work together we can make something so beautiful.
The last three images above are just my post adventures after the NGV excursion. My classmates and I visited Degraves St for some late lunch and as I headed home, there was a pop up store for Bailey Nelson. The frames and sunglasses are so cheap and I am ever so tempted to get another pair of glasses for myself, but do check it out they're quite cheap too :)
