Our regular visit to the Saatchi Gallery, having checked first that it is in fact open. We’ve been caught a couple of times when they closed to host a private function. Theme of social satire, and some good works. Like Michael Cline’s work, although in the current climate of homelessness it has undertones of sadness as well as the obvious satire. Wendy Mayer’s figure of a woman is intriguing, not least because it lists the materials used as papier maché, wax, acrylic, eyes, mixed media. 

EYES? 


As we leave it’s dusk and Christmas lights in the chestnut trees along Kings Road.
