People watch the Skywhale and Skylwahlepapa hover during the world premiere on February 7, 2021 in Canberra, Australia. Skywhalepapa is the latest hot air balloon creation by artist Patricia Piccinini and is a companion piece to Skywhale. Skywhalepapa is as tall as a seven-story building and used 3.6km of fabric in the construction of the envelope. The 1.5m wide fabric was cut into 2343 panels to create the balloon.
