The worlds largest ship in a bottle Artwork by YINKA SHONIBARE MBE will be unveiled on 24/5/2010.

It will be on display on the Fourth plinth in TRAFALGAR SQUARE, one of the most prestigious display spaces in the UK.

I am sad to say this is the first time I've heard about this artist, he seems to specialise in a pet love of mine, "wax cotton".


What do you think of his art?

I think I like where it's going, I liked the ankara, running headless man - maybe mixed with a British Tudor male suit style,

I like the ankara also. Your analysis of the other piece really made me look at it again. smiley
