I had a vision recently of Ai Wei Wei as a kind of personification of the Goddess since to me the feminine form of God is the nurturing force for ourselves, our precious Earth and the source of intuition and creative inspiration. I made this collage as a tribute to the artist Ai Wei Wei, to the feminine face of God and ART in general for which I will always be grateful!

A group of 12 bronze animal heads, representing the traditional Chinese Zodiac and standing at three-metres-tall
Forever Bicycles alludes to the Forever brand of bicycles that flooded China streets during the artist’s childhood yet remained financially out of reach, for many. With the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and The Forks as the backdrops, the dizzying structure of steel and light and shadow becomes an infinite puzzle
There are 1254 bicycles in the structure
Artist: Ai Weiwei

This new series of Zodiac works is composed from thousands of plastic LEGO bricks. The set of twelve works incorporates imagery from two well-known series by the artist. The twelve LEGO Zodiac animal heads deriving from his sculpture series Circle of Animals / Zodiac Heads (2010) are overlaid onto twelve landscapes and monuments from Ai’s Study of Perspective (1995–2003) series of photographs. Ai has been employing LEGO bricks as an artistic medium since 2007. He appreciates how LEGO is accessible to everyone, especially young people. His use of LEGO components is a response to the pixelated structure of digital images.
Through Sunday, Feb 24 at Hirshorn in Washington, DC

Ai Weiwei: Tree 2009-10
In this work centuries old tree trunks and branches from the mountain regions of southern China have been reassembled into one tree using a traditional Chinese interlocking building method. Conceived as an attempt ”to imagine what the tree looked like”, the sculpture has also been read as a commentary by Ai on the modern Chinese state, a territory and culturally diverse expanse whose sovereignty is promoted by the country’s official “ One China” policy.
