Canberra hot air balloon sculpture Skywhale was damaged by strong winds during a recent display in Ballarat and will require repairs before returning to the skies.

Piccinini said the balloon pilot described "bullets of wind" ripping a 1-metre gash in the seam between two of Skywhale's breasts.

"Both Skywhale and Skywhalepapa are magnificent works of art, but they're also operational aircraft," she said. Ms Pitt said both Skywhale and Skywhalepapa had a "dedicated team that looked after them at the National Gallery".

ABC hates the fact that Djokovic won Wimbledon last night.

A bloated monstrosity that exists solely because of government money. A better metaphor for Canberra, I couldn't conceive.

I never quite got this balloon, don't get me wrong, I'm all for breasts but this creation looks weird (sorry if I've offended anyone).

That’s right. Taxpayer dollars paid for this rubbish. Dear oh dear...

Any chance of enlightening the Australian public on the degenerative behaviour of the son of the sitting U.S. president?

Wtf

Both breasts of female Skywhale's breasts will look like this with time & gravity ABC 😉 Man ABC posts some dumb shite 😂
