Crazy


I was really looking forward to going to see the exhibition of Ai Weiwei's sunflower seeds which contain more than 1 million hand crafted porcelain seeds. It's displayed at the Tate Modern however the reason for the exhibition has now been discarded due to Health and Safety. Originally I thought the idea of walking across the hand made art installation and picking up the seeds to have a closer look was a great idea interacting with this long drawn process, but now health and safety have stepped in saying walking on the seeds are creating ceramic dust in the air has now made the display much less enthusiastic as it was before hand.

Its now like all that hard work of creating each and every seed by hand, all the dedication is now pointless. Such a waste.
