Ai Weiwei (1957) - UFO
“As an artist, I have to relate to humanity’s struggles ... I never separate these situations from my art,”
- Ai Weiwei
At first glance the intentionally enlarged image shows us, what appears to be, a blow-up snapshot from the moon set against a dark night sky.
Its surface disturbed by the presence of an UFO. A closer look at the pixelated image reveals us its true story.
As a political refugee who lived under constant government surveillance, the artist feels related to the growing influx of refugees attempting to enter Europe. He has used this UFO image, of a refugee boat floating on the waves of the Mediterranean Sea, frequently since 2016.
