Description This particular tram is a bit unusual...it has its a permanent passanger list: a bag lady, a punk, a Brighton house wife, a failed film-maker - all archetypal Melbourne characters...at some point the tram would be boarded by an overzealous ticket inspector who will examine the passengers' ticket
through a magnifying glass...this is what art is largely about: it brings you back to childhood, it tells you a fairy tale, in which you alrady don't trust, but which keeps fascinating you nevertheless.
