Who is Ai Wei Wei?

          He is a respectable artist who born in 18 May 1985 and active in architecture, photography, film and cultural critism. He was invited to be part of the China's Bird Nest Stadium complex and yet appealing design. Although he is anti-Olympic he still became the consultant on the design of Bird's Nest.

        In addition, his other famous works include sun flower seeds which were made up of porcelain sunflower seeds, It is handcrafted by nearly 2000 workers over a period of 2 years. Each seed, each process and each hand that has gone to making a meaning behind it. As the sunflower seeds symbolize Cultural Revolution, people were saying that Mao Zedong act as the sun and residents are sunflower which grown from sunflower seeds. Faithful Sunflower turning to face sun and sun provides what they need. Just like the Mao Zedong provided people bright and colorful future.

        I feel that the sunflower seed project is a meaningful project because it helped a lot of people in China. People were given chance to earn money for their life, they were given chance to connect with each other through the process of making seeds. Maybe this is not the purpose he create the sunflower seed, but he really helped a lot of people through the sunflower seed project.
