I don't remember noticing the flowers, but they've gone by and now there are these neat seed pods bursting open. Not a very good photo, but an interesting plant. See where this picture was taken. [?]

Gazing with rapt attention at the installation. It was a bit like staring at a carpark. See where this picture was taken. [?]

The explanation. See where this picture was taken. [?]

The installation opened on a Tuesday. For two days, people had a great time walking and lying on the sunflower seeds, picking them up, scooping them into mounds, etc. On Thursday, the Tate closed access due to concern about the cloud of ceramic dust that was stirred up. We were there on Friday, after the dust had settled. See where this picture was taken. [?]

Since I was there, they've added a rope line along the left side so that people can admire the ceramic sunflower seeds a bit closer up. See where this picture was taken. [?]

Member of staff walking back and forth in front of the rope, explaining the health & safety issue and Tate's decision to bar access to the sunflower seeds. See where this picture was taken. [?]
