My mum came up to the big city yesterday for a few hours and we popped into Tate Modern to see the Anish Kapoor sculpture. It really does bring out a sense of childish wonder is everyone who sees it. We decided that, while it is big, it is necessarily big and not gross, which was a good thing. Mum said it reminded her of Spiderman which I found odd because it had never occured to me, or Anna for that matter, and we’re both comics nerds It really bears repeated viewing as from every angle it looks different. Anway, photos were taken…
Mum taking it all in
From the middle with a long exposure, hence the blurryness. On a normal setting it’s way too dark.
Into the sculpture. This looks like a flower but in fact it’s bloody massive.
Inside from a different angle. Again wobbling with the long exposure but a nice effect.
Hey, weird. Now that you mention it, my mum said exactly the same thing about Spider-Man…
The Southwark Hive Mind Phenomena is clearly spreading amongst maternal circles…
