In his three Like a Hole in the Head videos, young Sydney artist Robin Hungerford dons big papier-mache pinata heads, which he attacks with hammers, knives, electric drills, and hedge clippers, pulling out brains, blood, and viscera until nothing’s left. Like a Hole in the Head is hysterical, simultaneously engaging us in its sadism and its pathos. Self-harm has never been so much fun.

The IMA acknowledges, thanks, and pays our deepest respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people that we work with and the Country we work on.
