The photographs are both humorous and unsettling, leaving the viewer questioning what is real and what is a facade.
Ai Weiwei’s "Sunflower Seeds" is a contemporary artwork that consists of millions of handcrafted porcelain sunflower seeds. Each seed is unique, and when viewed as a whole, they create a powerful image of mass production and individuality. Created in 2010, the artwork comments on the Chinese government’s control over the people and the artist’s desire for freedom of expression.
