Bondi becomes nude beach as thousands take part in Spencer Tunick’s Sydney installation

The 2,500 strong crowd represented the approximate number of people who die of skin cancer nationally each year. Tunick hoped the installation would encourage Australians, who top the world for mortalities to the cancer, to get regular skin checks.

At 4am, Tunick stood on a small orange crane in the shadows, calling out demands from a megaphone. The crowd chuckled in the darkness, sheltering each other from the blistering sea wind. Some wrapped towels around their bodies for warmth, others photographed the sunrise. Then, on the count of three, the crowd flung off their clothes – shirts and jumpers flying into the air in a sea of colour. They clapped and held hands and walked out to the sea, leaving discarded outfits and bags on the sand.

By 5.30am the beach was awash with light, and Tunick assembled his mass of bodies into pre-determined poses.

Where are the POCs?

This would be SUCH Fun !
