Good intro to the scene, and I met some very interesting artists and guests. I didn’t go to the earlier ones, but I think this year’s was definitely worthwhile.

The festival has been getting progessively worse since its inception. I still don't know why they traded the meat market away for the last 3 sub-par spaces. Yarra Sculpture Gallery was absolutely shocking. It is in a very bad location, was extremely dead and the lighting was very amateur. Gone are the days of Everfresh, Ha-ha and Sixten, unforunately the festival has gone from one of the best art events in the world to a mish mash of artists, many of whom are simply not up to standard.
