wellcome collection


For some reason i got many friends come to London for working , traveling or shopping from time to time ,i am a kind of unofficial tour guide for everyone ,booking tables , and shops opening hours are on the top of my head , er....... i also subscribe timeout , in case some good shows , gigs , sample sale ......... i enjoy it in a way , but sometime i do really out of idea , people want something very local from me , not talking about china town ,British museum or top shop , i guess friends from other country want to feel like a part-time local if i am around town . OK , guys  look , The Wellcome Collection is my number one museum /gallery . The wellcome collection , its say on their front page of their web "a free destination for the incurably curious ". so now u know it is free, and why it call wellcome collection , please read their web page . it is a place which offers visitors contemporary and historic exhibition and collection about health , humans , animals etc . It is something between an art exhibition  and a medical related show . They do a Friday night event all the time , last week  , along an exhibition call high society drug history and culture , a late event call HANDS . They do nails paint , palmistry, try out real prosthetics, meeting real surgery . try out their tools and try to sew fake wound together , a graphologist who analysing your handwriting , a palmist to read your palm, it is sooooooo fun i have to say , maybe like what the title of wellcome collection say "for the incurably curious ", i am curious in human being and body , i am never a quality to become a doctor in any way , even i was taught by a surgery to do a one hand knot , i was struggling . i am always proud of my sewing in fashion world , ok , you know what i should stay in the field i should belong to . The other things i like about the event about welcome collection are they do really try to relate art and medical and human body , late night event which call " SKIN " which do a online competition , the winner's drawing or pattern will be tattoo on a woman body , i think that is kind of crazy but i like it .

i didn' t take any picture in this HANDS event , i am enjoying myself , but do enclose the live tattoo thing from SKIN event .

can u see top right , that is a cafe ,
maybe next time they will do a surgery live !
