SO - YOU MADE IT?, by Judy Darragh, Te Papa, Wellington (until August 29).
Judy Darragh could be seen as the ideal Te Papa artist. Her work mixes high and low, art and craft, the real and the fake. It's abundant and excessive, it messes with notions of taste, and - at times anyway - addresses the visual construction of New Zealand identity. Maybe.
