Fountain of Life
The piece in the photo above is entitled Fountain of Life and is by far my favourite piece in the entire exhibition, which contains a mix of paintings, drawings and sculpture dating from 1984 to the present day. The exhibition is entitled Greetings from a Place in My Heart.
But coming back to the best piece (in my opinion!) - Fountain of Life - I find it fascinating, clever, eerie, sad, surreal of course, and somehow very pleasing. If you click on the picture you’ll see that I managed (unintentionally, I confess!) to catch a water droplet landing in the tea cup.
Here’s a view of the whole piece:

If you’re in London or visit London for tourism purpose you must visit the gallery any time between now and 7 December, do pay this exhibition a visit, although be aware that the gallery is only open Wednesday to Friday, from 10am to 5pm, and on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 5pm.
Deeply touching concept and beautifully presented. Hats off to your sumptuous effort. Well tried Vidi! Keep up the good work.
