Slovenian artist Matej Andraž Vogrinčič has recently completed his watering can installation in the Australian desert Breakaways. Originally titled "Rainforest for an Australian Desert", the installation consists of some 2,000 plaster watering cans arranged over the area of a football field. Critics are said to be thrilled at the latest project of the 31-year-old artist from Ljubljana, who has made his name as a "tailor for houses". Using donated clothing, he first "dressed" a dilapidated house in his hometown, and then presented a similar project at the Venice Biennial in 1991. A year later, he created the project "Car Park: Members Only" - a wall installation consisting of 15,000 toy cars placed on a wall of a building in Australia's Adelaide.
