The Unilever Series: Ai Weiwei

I selected this image from the Tate Modern because I'm attracted to multiples, repetition and patterns as well as how artists' relate their artwork to their culture. Sunflower Seeds is made up of millions of small works, each apparently identical, but actually unique and hand-crafted in porcelain.
