I saw this yesterday............
It's probably one of the most moving pieces I've ever seen but as with most 3D art, any attempt to reproduce it as a photographic image lets it down.........
A huge painting of Mao is almost obscured by a proliferation of dried roses on stems with huge thorns.............
I find modern art, faith and life itself an exhilarating challenge - some things I inherently 'get' and others leave me puzzled. Some things I understand and others remain a mystery. Sometimes it matters - and sometimes it doesn't.......
If you want to know more about the piece you can find its story here http://www.tate.org.uk/magazine/issue1/newacquisition.htm
