Street art: Bill Murray paste-up

With a somewhat uncanny yet irreverent nod to my month spent in Tokyo trying to emulate Scarlet Johansson in Lost in Translation (without the all-expenses-paid room at the Park Hyatt but with a pair of suitable pants for lounging – someone should really tell that girl about Uniqlo) my local shops welcomed me home with this surprise portrait of Bill Murray.

Not lost in translation – Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum

Just like Scarlett Johansson in Lost in Translation, while my other half went off to do his Tokyo thing during a month-long stay earlier this year, I was left to wander the streets with a vague yet curious look on my face. What to do but to take myself to the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum.
