Neil the Seal for President of the Tasmanian Republic.
His platform is refreshingly simple, with no spin, no grandstanding:
1. Protect the environment
2. Peace, humans
3. OK, visit if you wish (but keep a respectful distance)
4. Don’t bust a gut
5. No drama
#NeiltheSeal
Great art challenges, provokes, inspires.
It forces us to confront contradictions, empathise, explore.
