Sunflower Seeds
What does it mean to be an individual in today's society? Are we insignificant or powerless unless we act together? What do our increasing desires, materialism and numbers mean for society, the environment and the future?

Conversations with Susan Hiller
"... modern psychoanalytic thought has introduced to Western culture the idea of the heterogeneity of the self, breaking the tradition of a unified subject, revealing the multivalent, discontinuous, inconsistent, precarious identity of individuals in our society." - excerpt from a talk by Susan Hiller entitled REFLECTIONS.
Inspired by Ai Weiwei
"I realise art is really about your own motivation, your own passion, your own character, its not something a teacher can teach you." Ai Weiwei.
I just watched a beautiful video of Chinese artist Ai Weiwei. I haven't seen his piece 'Sunflower seeds' in the Turbine Hall however after this insight I am inspired to do so.
