The back wall of the gallery is covered in a deceptively decorative wallpaper, The Animal That Looks Like a Llama But is Really an Alpaca (2015). What from a distance looks like French eighteenth-century ormolu becomes, upon closer inspection, ominous arrays of surveillance cameras. During his years of domestic house arrest (2011–2015), the Chinese government surrounded Ai’s studio in Beijing with over twenty cameras, recording his activities twenty-four hours a day. He draws on his personal experience to comment on the encroaching surveillance state both in China and in the West. The beauty of the wallpaper design in contrast to its obscured sinister subject matter may allude to the deceptive sense of freedom that people can experience walking through the city, unaware that all of their movements and interactions are being watched at all times.

The historical figure of Laozi is shown in this sculpture as the Highest Venerable Lord, the primary deity of the Daoist pantheon. Wearing a long-sleeved belted robe associated with the Chinese scholar-official, Laozi is bearded with
refined facial features, hair pulled up in a bun under a hat, elongated earlobes signifying his great wisdom. He holds a fan-like object in his hand, a Daoist attribute denoting the wish for longevity.

Ai Weiwei: Making Sense
COLOURED HOUSE, 2013
Wood, paint, crystal glass
This house once belonged to a prosperous family in Zhejiang province, in Eastern China, during the early Qing dynasty (1644 - 1911 CE). The timber frame follows a traditional post-and-beam system. Most houses of this period have been demolished, giving this structure a ghostly quality.
Artist Ai Weiwei rescued the house from destruction and has painted the house with industrial colours, combining ancient and modern, and installed it on crystal bases-giving presence and status to this unlikely survivor.
