Fragments

Ai WeiWei used antique wood from dismantled Qing Dynasty temples to form an irrational structure, but actually maps out the borders of China. I like how it is a merging of old and new, with the new stools and the antique wood. It interesting how WeiWei takes old pieces of Chinese culture and gives it a new meaning or message. The contrast in the colors of the wood makes it a puzzle for the eyes.
