There's definitely a bit
of theme going on here with mermaid inspired pieces - I recently discovered the brand Valfre via Instagram which is an LA based label who make amazing sassy clothing, accessories and
art which quite often pay homage to everyone's
favourite kind of undersea siren.
The bookies tell us that Philipsz is the
favourite to win — a good result, if only because it will be the first time that sound
art has received this
kind of recognition (and if you want to find out more about what she does, we ran a video interview with her last Friday).
