I finally visited the Tate Modern in London.

Each year they have an artist taking over the colossal hall of the building with a piece of art.

The floor has been opened by the artist Doris Salcedo with a sculpture called Shibboleth.

I would call it a big playful crack. It struck me how almost everybody gets on the floor to watch the crack, I like it when a piece of art interacts so strongly with the people!!

Cool pics! Oh how I love Tate Modern... it's been more than 4 years since the last time I've been there. And I think it was in November, or December as well, a great period to be in London if you ask me. Lucky girl.

Tu aurais dû voir certaines des autres installations... Comme celle-ci, qui y était la première fois que j'y ai mis les pieds:

Tout le plafond avait été couvert de miroirs, il y avait de la brume et un bruit blanc de fond. Les gens se couchaient par terre pour se regarder dans le plafond... Très spécial.

Ah oui l'expo "Sun", avec le grand miroir et la brume... Je me rappelle avoir bien passé 15min à rester couché sur le dos et observer dans le miroir les gens aller et venir autour de moi...
