According to Wikipedia:
The blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus) is a deep sea fish of the family Psychrolutidae. Inhabiting the deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania, it is rarely seen by humans.
That’s probably for the best.

Reminds me of Bertie.
Beat me to it, maybe not Bertie, but certainly a TD.
Any TD.
Cowen surely?
God’s rerpresentative in the Seanad Senator Ronan Mullen I would have thought?

It’s a sculpture thankfully. Still creepy as hell though.

‘In contrast, Piccinini has moved into uncharted territory with her poignant new sculpture, Eulogy, Ms Messenger says. ‘This sculpture of a miserable-looking creature cradled in a man’s hands appears to be another of Piccinini’s fantastical creatures, but it actually already exists in nature’.
‘It is the highly evolved Blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus), which inhabits the deep waters off mainland Australia and Tasmania. It is sadly facing extinction due to deep-sea trawler fishing’.
The guy holding it is no oil painting either

Lemon, cracked black pepper and a bit of Tartar sauce. You’d still be eating something that looks like a cartoon character. Eeeeeeeeeuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhhhh….

Was this before Richard Hammond got the job on Top Gear? He was a human fisherman? :)
Is that Richard Hammond? The guy holding it, not the fish.
Stick a flat cap on there and it’s Jackie Healy Rae tbh.
Looks like an old man. It’s Tony the fish. He’s evolving!
